where does Cygwin store whether the user has chosen DOS or UNIX as the "Default Text File Format" when installing? Is it possible to change that setting without re-installing Cygwin?
In the mount table. See "man mount". Google for "cygwin remount binary" for a handy one-liner.
Thanks. The default mounts seem to be encoded in the Windows registry, as there is not fstab. It also seems I need to change the flags in a key named "cygdrive flags" if I want to change the mount mode of auto-mounted drives. Is that correct? Is there an explanation of the flags somewhere (well, without having to checkout all the source code and search for it ...).
