Thanks, but I'm still not sure why then the Cygwin install asks you whether you want Unix or DOS style files (EOF's).
After reading your post I did some further investigation and determined that my problem is in my port of ksh and not specifically with Cygwin itself. Does anyone know of a Cygwin port for ksh that lets me choose between Unix and DOS EOF's or at least uses DOS EOF's?
