At one time, I thought DOS handled pipes basically by writing the output of the first program to a file and then connecting the input of the next program to the file, after the first program completed. I don't think it resulted in the two programs running in parallel. Does anyone else remember this? Adrian On Thu, Jun 12, 2008 at 11:14 AM, David Nicol <davidnicol@gmail.com> wrote:

"cmd" can handle pipe chains now, I believe it could twenty years ago. _______________________________________________ Kclug mailing list Kclug@kclug.org http://kclug.org/mailman/listinfo/kclug
