I know it's a common issue, but I didn't find a solution to my problem in the archive.
I have a "dos" file (lines ends with carriage return+line feed : 0d0a in Hex) : bash-3.2$ xxd test1 0000000: 6161 610d 0a62 6262 0d0a aaa..bbb.. If I apply a cygwin command to this file, I get an additional carriage return : bash-3.2$ grep -E 'a|b' test1 > test2 bash-3.2$ xxd test2 0000000: 6161 610d 0d0a 6262 620d 0d0a aaa...bbb... I chose dos mode when installing cygwin. My filesystems are mounted "textmode" bash-3.2$ mount c:\win32app\cygwin\bin on /usr/bin type system (textmode) c:\win32app\cygwin\lib on /usr/lib type system (textmode) c:\win32app\cygwin on / type system (textmode) c: on /cygdrive/c type system (textmode) I have no CYGWIN environment variable set Is what I get the "normal" behaviour with thos parameters? What can I do so that when I use some cygwin command on a "dos" file I get a "dos" file in the output? -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
