Don't spread misinformation. Cygwin is a Unix environment emulation, so /dev/null ALWAYS exists (none of this junk about "depending on your installation").
here is some output of my personal Cygwin installation: $ ls /dev ls: /dev: No such file or directory
It seems that the entire /dev directory is missing. And yes: I have installed Cygwin with the regular setup program. Maybe, you have to select a specific package in order to get /dev/null.
It might be interesting to know what you have to do in order to get /dev. -- 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/
