[Dev-C++] cygwin and mingw

currently i am using Dev-C++ 4.9.9.2 version.  i am going to develop a program which requires me to run the program with the command "executablefile $(cat test.txt)" it means the words are stored as a command line argument.  i have heard that i may need to install cygwin before i can run with this syntax.  as i am awared that Dev-C++ was running with mingw compiler, can it run with this syntax?  if so where do i run it?  do i run it from the command prompt in the directory where the .c files are saved?  if it can only be run in cygwin, how do i launch the executable file together with the test.txt file in cygwin before i can run it?
