Ah.. makes sense.   Good old DOS is stupid enough not to card most times.  You can create 
a text file with a "Y" in it, and redirect it into a command like:

del . < y.txt


Guess that's not a pipe technically.  And some commands may be smart enough to 
prevent something like this.

Technically it is a pipe, but that's really beside the point.

The point I was making is that you cannot pipe something into a process with the | character *and* redirect stdin with the < character.

The stdin redirect (<) can be used with any command that takes input through stdin (usually the keyboard on a standard console).
