There are 4 blank lines in my .bash_profile:

Each blank line generates an error:
$ source .bash_profile
BEGIN ~/.bash_profile

: command not found
: command not found
: command not found
END ~/.bash_profile
However, if I comment all the blank lines out, I get no errors. Each blank
line in this file seems to be causing a "command not found" error. What
could be causing this?
Have you eliminated CR's as the cause (RTFRA and STFLA if you don't know
what I'm talking about). What version of bash are you using? It would be
helpful if you read http://cygwin.com/problems.html, especially the part
about ATTACHING (not pasting in-line) cygcheck output.
(Ooh... google finds lots of "wrong" results for STFLA, but the second
RTFRA is my big-nasty-rant one ;-).)
