starting bash with
CYGWIN=notty nobinmode notitle

and then doing after bash starts
export CYGWIN="notty binmode notitle"
echo "this is a binmode test" > binmode.test

will output in text mode.


starting bash with
CYGWIN=notty binmode notitle
echo "this is a binmode test" > binmode.test

will output in binary mode.


This only affects redirection, pipes seem to work ok

echo "this is a binmode test" | tee binmode.test

outputs in the correct mode.
