While it's not hard to delete the rouge "nul" files, it is a recent change to cygwin that allows them to be created at all.
1.5.9 seemed to treat "NUL" in the normal windows way (equivalent of /dev/null), so didn't create these files. 1.5.10 changed so Cygwin no longer recognizes windows special file names like "NUL", and instead treats them like normal files. Is there a reason for this change? -- 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/
