I believe my copy of textfile.txt has one CRLF pair at the end, and the length is 76 bytes: dpchrist@p42800e:~$ wc textfile.txt 2 14 76 textfile.txt dpchrist@p42800e:~$ wc textfile.out 2 14 74 textfile.out Also: C:\cygwin\home\dpchrist>dir textfile.txt Volume in drive C is P42800E Volume Serial Number is 80A2-A98F Directory of C:\cygwin\home\dpchrist 01/02/2005 12:00 PM 76 textfile.txt 1 File(s) 76 bytes 0 Dir(s) 66,820,841,472 bytes free C:\cygwin\home\dpchrist>type textfile.txt This is a text file created with Notepad.

I do not understand the subtleties of Cygwin textmode mounts and binmode mounts. I do not recall taking any actions to affect this parameter -- my habit is to simply download Cygwin setup.exe, download packages to the local disk, and install packages from the local disk. When I suspect my Cygwin installation is corrupt, I rename C:\cygwin, do a fresh download/ download/ install cycle, and move over my data. (Maybe I need to do this again?) > ... please install coreutils to replace all these three packages. Using ftp:://planetmirror.com, 5.2.1-4 appears to be the most recent version of coreutils and it looks like I already have it installed (also confirmed by the attached cygcheck.out). The three previous mirrors on the list also indicate 5.2.1-4 is current. Is there a newer release? Do I need to find a better mirror? Reinstalling coreutils 5.2.1-4 anyway does not cure the problem: dpchrist@p42800e:~$ grep dump .bashrc alias dump='od -Ad -tc' dpchrist@p42800e:~$ dump textfile.txt 0000000 T h i s i s a t e x t f 0000016 i l e c r e a t e d w i t h 0000032 N o t e p a d . \r \n I t h a 0000048 s D O S ( C R L F ) l i n 0000064 e e n d i n g s . \r \n 0000076 dpchrist@p42800e:~$ expand textfile.txt > textfile.out dpchrist@p42800e:~$ dump textfile.out 0000000 T h i s i s a t e x t f 0000016 i l e c r e a t e d w i t h 0000032 N o t e p a d . \n I t h a s 0000048 D O S ( C R L F ) l i n e 0000064 e n d i n g s . \n 0000074 David
