No, you're not. Try, for example, "ls /dev/null". See the User's Guide: <http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-specialnames.html#AEN825>. > Espacially the stdin,stdout,stderr nodes to do shell-redirection. > Is this implementation missing or am i to blind to find it ? /dev/std{in,out,err} are bash artifacts. I'm guessing you're using /bin/sh, which on Cygwin is not the same as /bin/bash (see <http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#CYNUX>). Either use bash, or use the standard bourne shell syntax, e.g., <&0, >&1 and >&2. See also <http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2003-03/msg00643.html>.
