Hi,
I saw that there was some changes in bash concerning handling of CR
(that raise a lot of discussion :-))
I am using bash version:
3.1.17(9)
I have tried to use shopt -s igncr but I have an issue with the
following shell construct:
t=`gcc --print-multi-lib` where gcc is a mingw gcc.
As my gcc is a mingw program, it outputs CR/LFs. In previous versions
bash used to ignore the CR, so t variable was not containing any CR.
Now this is no more the case and this is causing some troubles
is there anyway to configure bash in order to have backward
compatibility ? ( I want to avoid adding "| tr -d '\r'")
is igncr supposed to address this ?
Thanks in advance
Nicolas
