In the next release I link u2d.1.gz directly to dos2unix.1.gz. On Linux the d2u and u2d links are not installed. This is only done on Cygwin, because the previous dos2unix implementation (part of cygutils) used to have these commands. regards, -- Erwin Waterlander http://waterlan.home.xs4all.nl/ -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
