The recent change to 'read' was a bugfix, and as far as I'm concerned, it is the ideal fix (you get binary behavior by default, and text behavior if you use igncr; just as with every other aspect of the shell controlled by igncr). > Or does it introduce new problems? No. The existing problem of igncr vs. PS1 was pre-existing, it was NOT introduced by the recent change to 'read'. >=20 > Basically, I don't want to set `igncr` as system-wide shell option > (e.g. through SHELLOPTS). Don't use it, then. I highly recommend avoiding 'igncr', because it exists only as a crutch. The real solution is to fix your environment to be binary-clean, at which point you no longer need igncr. But I also understand that fixing an environment to be binary-clean can be expensive, so 'igncr' remains as the crutch. > So, how do I keep an existing bash script, that uses `read` piped from > the output of a Windows console program that uses CRLF as newlines, > working, without modifying the script?

By piping the output of the Windows program through d2u before handing it to 'read'. >=20 > Personally I think that by default read should behave as it did for > years. Sorry, but I am NOT a fan of default behavior that corrupts my data. I am not going to maintain backwards bug compatibility to the broken read behavior. --=20 Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org --gp6TwcgiGntOEdVRSmij0FjT6N2HfdkV1-- --MUsOPM1Fb3uxQMcIKtBFk4SHXRouWQEUB Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 Comment: Public key at http://people.redhat.com/eblake/eblake.gpg Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJXyX9tAAoJEKeha0olJ0NqXn8IAJ5QhshEj2UO4AiN3XIJu9jZ 2lqGhdQwXPy4EhgAquqQ1feOPrrOhHEvmneAAGoqr5aa9TnHUOMt/tyCUVxL0Oha zXLPmX+aIVgv+JXadNvEf6IFn0zlBj4KmpZdCE9eq+aQE64Psf5Rxv+bT3w27NqW Evn6ERSdbzUqJmeJ8iV+Fo77jgcNzoFazAwuxHY7D7pjPzNC4mIBDYSeOIRow+sV bwZ/QhYLddGMTAmL8PTgCwIRWX7UGCjLlDHfIs3d4LH/ecFhF0ExIU/SLvB4G2vW Vt/ZnnO6g/X50V8WW0nd55Hs3BGoUNgdhvB1WKUcK0Gx4lHnGZ84tlATZVieYQk= =fAwb -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --MUsOPM1Fb3uxQMcIKtBFk4SHXRouWQEUB--
