Dear cyg Simple,

it is not my application I have issues with. I am building many open source tools and libraries which are maintained by others, and as you said, these others have every right to deny implementing windows specific workarounds in their tools or build scripts. Why should anybody use "wb" mode to open a file in a Linux centric app or mess around with the input of sed to remove CRs in a build script for such an app? Of cause the same is true for cygwin, except that I think building MinGW apps is an intended use case for cygwin. But then it needs to have ways to deal with MinGW programs which behave like MinGW programs should, and this means ending lines with cr-lf. 

Best regards,

Michael
