Date: Wed, 10 Jan 2001 14:03:51 -0800 Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 (Normal) X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook IMO, Build 9.0.2416 (9.0.2910.0) Importance: Normal X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2919.6700 Perl 5.6.1-1 seems to get confused as to whether its processing a DOS or Unix format file, depending on what shell it is run under. I'm using it in Windows 2000 to process a DOS format source file with line endings 0D0A (\r\n): When it is run directly from a DOS command prompt it works as expected and produces an output file with line endings 0D0A. When it is run from either bash or make initiated from a DOS command prompt, then it produces an output file with line endings 0D0D0A (\r\r\n). It seems that in this case it thinks that it is processing a Unix file, and has added a 0D to change from the Unix 0A line ending to the DOS 0D0A. I'm using CygWin make 3.79-3 and bash 2.04-5. -- Want to unsubscribe from this list? Check out: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
