Err ... how exactly does opening an instance of notepad pipe the file
contents into an open console window?

It doesn't. Where in the above do you see any reference to Notepad?

How about trying what I showed you. This "type" is a VERY old DOS command. Long before Notepad appeared on the sceme.

Oops. My mistake. My eyes glaze over whenever I see multi-level
instructions requiring the use of the magic Start button to do
something, let alone something as basic as opening a console window --
it seems I interpreted the "type" to mean "type." Ha ha ha. Ok, so
maybe not that funny. <g>
I just installed Cygwin so life is back to normal.
Thanks to the both of you for the replies.
