Correct me if I am wrong. \r\n are at the end of every line in a dos
text file. mounting stuff in binmode causes calls to the system call
read() to return the line as if there was only a \n at the end. mounting
stuff in textmode causes calls to the system call read() to return the
line as if there was only a \n at the end. 

I am getting \r\n regardless of what mode I have the directories mounted
as when I read from perl, as demonstrated by the script below. I have
recreated the problem on two computers now. Can anyone else recreate
this problem? Is it a bug in cygwin?

There is only one perl on my system. (Earnie: The /usr/local/bin/perl is
a link I create for backward compatability in some of my other scripts.)
I did a search of the entire system just to double check. So that is not
the problem.

Thanks for any help,
Josh

Could be that you have \r\n in your contents file.  Could be that you've
more than one version of perl installed.  Note, the current perl is
located at /usr/bin/perl not /usr/local/bin/perl.

Cheers,
Earnie.
