Subject: Accessing Windows devices

Hello,
I am creating my own Windows device driver and would like to be able to 
access it through applications in Cygwin (normal device operations-- 
open, close, read, write, ioctl).  I understand that there is support 
for a number of POSIX devices (described in user's guide), but haven't 
found a way to access other native Windows devices. Is there any way to 
accomplish this in Cygwin?

Thanks for you help,
Tom
