You probably unpacked a tarball with a windows zip utility that "helpfully" changes the line endings on files. Don't do that. Use cygwin tools to unzip the tarball (and this topic has been in the list archives as well). You may also be interested in re-reading the bash release announcement for a way to make bash ignore \r in files: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-announce/2008-01/msg00002.html | | I tried this, but now get the error: | | configure_dos_format: error: cannot run /bin/sh | /emacs_downloaded/emacs-22.1/config.sub You have more than one afflicted file. By the way, any reason you're trying to compile emacs rather than using it pre-built? You may also want to download the source that accompanies the pre-built version, since it comes with a script that takes care of all the unpacking and compilation for you (in fact, it was that script that the maintainer uses to compile the pre-built version in the cygwin distribution). - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
