Hi, I have just installed release 1.7 under Windows 7, 64bit. The setup.exe program seems to have changed and you can't any longer set the Default Text File Type to DOS/Text. I have a lot of scripts that won't run under bash as long as the extra CR's are not removed. I know of the tool doc2unix, however there are other obstacles too so having the auto-conversion is the best solution for me.
After installation, I have the following drives mounted. $ mount C:/cygwin/bin on /usr/bin type ntfs (binary,auto) C:/cygwin/lib on /usr/lib type ntfs (binary,auto) C:/cygwin on / type ntfs (binary,auto) C: on /cygdrive/c type ntfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto) F: on /cygdrive/f type ntfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto) R: on /cygdrive/r type ntfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto) U: on /cygdrive/u type ntfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto) I can, using the mount-command $ mount -f -o text,posix=0 c: /cygdrive/c change the mode to text: $ mount C:/cygwin/bin on /usr/bin type ntfs (binary,auto) C:/cygwin/lib on /usr/lib type ntfs (binary,auto) C:/cygwin on / type ntfs (binary,auto) C: on /cygdrive/c type ntfs (text,user) F: on /cygdrive/f type ntfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto) R: on /cygdrive/r type ntfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto) U: on /cygdrive/u type ntfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto) However, this does not fix the problem and I still get the error: $ ./foo.sh ./foo.sh: line 1: $'\r': command not found ./foo.sh: line 13: syntax error: unexpected end of file Here is the script foo.sh: $ cat foo.sh # Check that the user supplied one parameter if [ "$#" != 1 ] then echo "You must supply one parameter:" exit 1 fi # We're done now exit 0 The error says that there is an extra \r on the first empty line of the script. I have also tried to use the extra argument -nocr to bash, however that doesn't work either. Any ideas?
