IIRC even Cygwin dropped Windows text handling in coreutils, findutils, grep, 
sed, etc. about 2018 to be consistent with other POSIX platforms.

Use d2u/dos2unix or u2d/unix2dos in pipes to convert, or equivalent, such as
tr -d '\r', sed -e 's/\r//g', awk -e '{gsub(/\r/,"")'.

Cygwin users may be able to compensate by remounting the filesystem with a 
"text" mount option -o text or the equivalent in an /etc/fstab entry, but I am 
unsure if anyone has tested using that option nowadays.
