But which file to open as a place holder? In this example I use

Of course, it does, but it has the classic MS-DOS name of "NUL"
present in the context of any directory (so \dev\nul works if you
have a dev directory.)
I guess this can be ifdef'ed then.
Bill, so /dev/null and NUL should cover all grounds Apache runs on, or
are there other odd cases? And if so do you have a better idea for a
file to open that will work everywhere? [also notice that it has to be
rw - and if not, we need two files then, one for < and another for >,
otherwise open will fail.
Thanks Bill
