 Hi all,
Thank you so much for the response,and nearby for the entire cygwin Project.(Best of both worlds)"The devil is in the detail"I admire cygwin so much, and I' am overwhelmed
that it can do the named pipes on paragon systemalready.I do not expect cygwin to master the symbolic links,it's too much.But if it were able master, I would sit on my chair breathless.
One can download paragon athttps://www.paragon-software.com/de/home/linuxfs-windows/#
it has a ten days trial period.
