So I wanted to use the 'wv' tools from http://www.wvware.com/
and downloaded the most recent 'wv2' files.
When running ./configure on wv2 I get the following ...
---
checking for iconv... no
checking for libiconv_open in -liconv... yes
checking for iconv.h... yes
checking need
My apologies for trusting ./configure to know what it is testing.
So I suppose the real questions is why does
./configure complain about the libiconv that cygwin has.
The following was produced by running ./configure

If I make the following change to wv2's configure, I can then make the package

You do realize that there is native apache implementation available for
various windows platforms. I myself am running apache on windows while
I also use cygwin when I want to. Sometimes depending on heavy use of
various text utilities and keyboard input the cygwin might crash. But

The read command is supposedly a shell builtin.
Strangely enough, the first time I tried the
example given with ksh, I got the exact same response.
However on later attempts, I got what w

BTW, the most frequently reported bug is
echo hi | read a; echo $a # Does not print hi
I'm aware of this and there is no need to report it.

I literally cut and pasted a portion of Svend's post.
The portion I thought I used was ...

James remarks that
"sed has the unfortunate property that it reduces dos
format line endings to unix format line endings" under cygwin
and that this "makes sed unusable or undesirable for a large

Cygwin-apps may be a more appropriate place for this question.
If you use /bin/echo the problem goes away.
I can reproduce the problem with tcsh and

I get the expected behavior.
Apparently the built-in echo functions differently.
