Hi This is an informal report as I've seen this message only once. Maybe you'll be able to understand what went wrong.
$ uname -a CYGWIN_NT-5.0 duli2 1.5.19s(0.141/4/2) 20051020 10:37:08 i686 unknown unknown Cygwin $ cat 305.cpp >/dev/clipboard 3191 [main] cat 28784 set_clipboard: Couldn't write native format to the clip board C0FA CA0004 cat: write error: No space left on device At that moment I had over 700 MB memory free. The file I was trying to copy was a pure text file with size under 3 KB. After a few second the same operation succeeded. Repeating it in an infinite loop never caused any error again.
