Hi all,

I've noticed a minor issue while typing at the bash prompt in cmd.exe. It 
seems that when I try to type a £ sign, a hash character and newline is 
entered instead. I'm aware of the issues surrounding these two characters, 
but as far as I can tell all of my language settings in Windows are 
configured for the UK.

Anyone else noticed this?

Just in case anyone was wondering, I only discovered this by accident. I 
was going for the $ sign and pressed the wrong key. I'll check this on my 
Linux system when I get home tonight, to see if it's Cygwin specific.

Thanks for your time!

Tom
