-Are you sure that tc did not ignore stdin and just look at the name on the

-keyboard, but I am too lazy to look it up).

Sorry you misunderstood.  The sample.c program will read stdin, tc will not.
That's why it worked.  Try using a different file for the indirection. You
will see that that file will be displayed and not sample.c.
