AW: when using cygwin version 2.8.2 the behavior of CR/LF changed completely compared to previous versions

[Roger Krebs <Roger.Krebs@stage-entertainment.com>]

Hi,

I've seen that there were some changes regarding CR/LLF in sed and cygcheck, but I havn't recognized that several other tool has also changed their behavior in the past. We haven't done an update for a longer period of time (why update when anything runs well) and therefor now we've been faced with several similar changes in the behavior of different tools. That's the reason why we've thought that this must be something general.

Many thanks to bring me into the right context. We've made some smaller changes in our scripts and everything seems to work fine now.

Again many thanks for the very quick and helpful response.

Best Regards
Roger Krebs
