That's where you're wrong. Named pipes DO exist on cygwin, although there are still some bugs being hammered out when trying to have multiple simultaneous writers to a named pipe. Also, whereas you can do <>pipe on Linux, that won't work on cygwin (where named pipes must be read-only owr write-only). - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
