Oh, hang on, it gets more interesting, I just got it to *really* fail. Here's a test on a file with 4207 lines in it..... [EMAIL PROTECTED] /artimi/firmware> cat diffs.txt | tee tmp2.txt | head -4100 > /dev/nu ll tee: write error [EMAIL PROTECTED] /artimi/firmware> cat diffs.txt | tee tmp2.txt | head -4100 > /dev/nu ll [EMAIL PROTECTED] /artimi/firmware> cat diffs.txt | tee tmp2.txt | head -4100 > /dev/nu ll [EMAIL PROTECTED] /artimi/firmware> cat diffs.txt | tee tmp2.txt | head -4100 > /dev/nu ll tee: write error [EMAIL PROTECTED] /artimi/firmware> [EMAIL PROTECTED] /artimi/firmware> [EMAIL PROTECTED] /artimi/firmware> cat diffs.txt | tee tmp2.txt | head -4100 > /dev/nu ll tee: write error [EMAIL PROTECTED] /artimi/firmware> cat diffs.txt | tee tmp2.txt | head -4100 > /dev/nu ll tee: write error [EMAIL PROTECTED] /artimi/firmware> cat diffs.txt | tee tmp2.txt | head -4100 > /dev/nu ll Terminate batch job (Y/N)? Wow. The last time where I tried it, it paused for a long time as if it had hung, and then managed to kill my entire bash shell and cygwin.bat session. I guess there really is a bug there. cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
