Hi, I have just upgraded my cygwin (bash) from 2.0.4 to 2.0.5, and it broke one of our development scripts. Basically what it did was, to drop the backslash from the input. My readline version is 4.2a-1. e.g., test.sh file ========= contains: cat junk.txt | while read line do if [ $line = "This\is\a\test" ] ; then echo `cat junk.txt` else echo "This is bad" fi done
junk.txt file ============== contains: This\is\a\test I got an output This is bad. Can anyone help out? Thanks. Zhongyu Zhou -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
