Subject: gawk 4.1.4: CR separate char for CRLF files
Date: Tue, 08 Aug 2017 23:16:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <004401d3109c$2dcb09e0$89611da0$@gmx.net> (raw)

Dear All,

the current version 4.1.4 of gawk appears to unpleasantly treat CR for CRLF
files, i.e. CR is not gracefully swallowed, but is a separate character.

This makes some, if not all, of the scripts we are working with here
useless, unless the input files are converted to LF which certainly is not
feasible. IIRC the issue did not show up some versions back. 

Is this a bug - or am I missing something here?

Thanks,
J. - living on Win10
