From: eric@systech.com (Eric Lighthart) Subject: bash and "here documents" 8 Jan 1997 13:47:09 -0800 Sender: daemon@cygnus.com Approved: cygnus.gnu-win32@cygnus.com Distribution: cygnus Message-ID: <199701082123.NAA11148.cygnus.gnu-win32@asdf.systech.com> Original-To: gnu-win32@cygnus.com Original-Sender: owner-gnu-win32@cygnus.com I get this (gnu-win32-b17.1 on Win95): bash$ cat > xyzzy < this is a test > HERE BASH.EXE: 73164356: No such file or directory bash$ The "file name" that appears in the error message differs each time. Similar constructs inside shell scripts (like GNU "configure") fail similarly. I've tried the same thing under WinNT 3.51, with similar results. Seems like this must work out there in the real world.... Anyone know or care to guess what I'm missing?
