I am exploring how process substitution works on Cygwin. I have scripts
which run fine on Linux but not on Windows XP.
Why does one of these scripts produce an error and the other does not?
Script #1:
$ cat a
#!/bin/bash
function f()
{
echo "$1"
cat "$1"
}
f <(echo OK)
$ ./a
/proc/self/fd/63
OK
Script #2:
$ cat b
#!/bin/bash
function f()
{
ls -l "$1"
cat "$1"
}
f <(echo OK)
$ ./b
lrwxrwxrwx 1 luser None 0 May 29 15:49 /proc/self/fd/63 -> pipe:[1728]
cat: /proc/self/fd/63: No such file or directory
Thanks,
