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
number of files i might want to edit"

Cygwin-apps may be a more appropriate place for this question.  

James, is there some reason that dos2unix on files to
be edited followed by unix2dos afterwords might not get
the job done?
