Hi, I have just run into a Cygwin vs Linux oddity that I cannot explain. I've managed to trace the problem back to a very simple statement: echo "$(echo -e '\r')" | od -x on my W2K Cygwin install (Cygwin1.dll 2005/04/01), this produces 0000000 000a 0000001 On Linux, this command produces: # echo "$(echo -e '\r')" | od -x 0000000 0a0d 0000002 (which is what I'd expect). Also, the Cygwin command echo -e '\r' | od -x also returns 0000000 0a0d 0000002 which is , again, what I would expect. I've tried setting CYGWIN to 'tty binmode' but it did not make a difference.
What am I doing wrong here? thanks in advance, JJ Keijser This e-mail and any attachment is for authorised use by the intended recipient(s) only.
