Windows programs often like ^Z as EOF. stephan();

First of all I apologize if this was answered somewhere else, but I didn't find it. I tried searching Google, the archives (http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/htsearch?restrict=%2Fml%2Fcygwin%2F;e xclude=;config=htdig;method=boolean;format=builtin-long;sort=time;words= stdin%20AND%20%5ED%20OR%20EOF;page=5) and the user guide, but none of these had the answer. My question is (I think) simple: what is the shell key combination for EOF? I am running a program - CRM114 - that was compiled for Windows, but it is in my cygwin path (/usr/bin). This program expects me to type in some text and, when I'm ready for CRM114 to process it I am supposed to hit the EOF keyboard combination. I tried ^D (control D) but this didn't seem to work. Should ^D work? Is there something else I can try to use for EOF? -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
