Subject: bc version has issue with \r when run from cmd
Date: Thu, 20 Oct 2016 07:02:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAKBM6-NDxAPa3+xa48OkQyx3LGFSRKWzbV7j+F=nPJp2W28PhA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

the version of bc that comes with cygwin, is bc 1.06.95   it works
fine from within the cygwin environment, but from cmd it doesn't
process \r

C:\cygwin\bin>echo 5+4|.\bc
(standard_in) 1: illegal character: ^M

C:\cygwin\bin>

C:\cygwin\bin>echo 5+4|tr -d '\r'|.\bc
9

C:\cygwin\bin>


Whereas I notice that Gow uses 1.06

And that does work with \r in cmd

C:\Program Files (x86)\Gow\bin>.\bc -v
bc 1.06
Copyright 1991-1994, 1997, 1998, 2000 F

C:\Program Files (x86)\Gow\bin>

And  it works fine with \r

C:\Program Files (x86)\Gow\bin>echo 5+4|.\bc
9

C:\Program Files (x86)\Gow\bin>
