If I do this:

type cat.rb | ruby -e “print $stdin.readlines”

I get this output (NOTE, it’s the same):
print $stdin.readlines

If I type this command (.rb has been associated to ruby.exe on
Win2K):

type cat.rb | cat.rb

I get this output:
cat.rb:1:in `readlines’: Bad file descriptor (Errno::EBADF)

    from cat.rb:1

What about type cat.rb | ruby cat.rb ?
