I'm getting weird behavior from grep. Searching for a bracketed range of characters (i.e. [A-Z]) is doing case-insensitive matching, while an identical but explicit character set match (i.e. [ABCDE...Z]) does not. Examples below. Output of "cygcheck -s -v -r" attached.
LANG=en_US GREP_OPTIONS is unset $ cat > test.dat abcde ABCDE $ grep '[A-Z]' test.dat abcde ABCDE $ grep '[A-E]' test.dat abcde ABCDE $ grep '[a-z]' test.dat abcde ABCDE $ grep '[a-e]' test.dat abcde ABCDE $ grep '[a-b]' test.dat abcde ABCDE Contrast with the correctly-working examples below $ grep '[ab]' test.dat abcde $ grep 'A' test.dat ABCDE $ grep a test.dat abcde $ grep '[A]' test.dat ABCDE $ grep '[ABC]' test.dat ABCDE $ grep '[ABCDE]' test.dat ABCDE $ grep '[ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ]' test.dat ABCDE
