I searched and did find another sed on my disk, but that was not in the path. So - yes - I *am* using cycwin's sed. > I tried with input files > containing german umlauts and sed does not convert to wide > char and it does not produce a BOM marker at the start of the file. Maybe that conversion comes from me redirecting the output to a file using 'sed {options} > filename.ext' ?!? I'll have to verify that! There is no option to explicitly specify an output file, is there?
