Objet : How to delete file "nul"?


Hi

bash allows to pipe to a file named "nul" e.g.:
echo test > nul

bash-2.05b$ ls -l
total 1
-rwxrwxrwx    1 pfeiffer mkgroup-        4 Jul  2 10:00 nul

The problem is that this file can not be deleted.
I was not able to delete it using the "rm" command in
bash, or "del" in a windows command line or the
windows explorer.

Any idea how this file can be deleted, without
booting an alternative OS?


Regards,
Michael
