Hi! Running 1.7.1 on Windows 2008 R2 some of my shell scripts stopped working.
The culprint is tail.exe 1. tail +N does not work anymore. Obsolete? How can i re-enable this? 2. tail overwrites redirected files! $ echo "1" > a $ echo "22" >> a $ echo "333" >> a $ cat a 1 22 333 echo "x" > x $ tail -1 a >> x $ cat x 333 Notice, that the first line of x (containg one x) is gone!
