--------
to review.. the problem (UNIX style lines converted to DOS):
--v-v------------------C-U-T---H-E-R-E-------------------------v-v--
bash-2.05b$ printf "\r\n\n"|perl -pe '1;'|od -a
0000000 cr nl cr nl
0000004
work around:
--v-v------------------C-U-T---H-E-R-E-------------------------v-v--
bash-2.05b$ printf "\r\n\n"|perl -pe '
BEGIN {
binmode (\*STDIN, q{:raw});
binmode (\*STDOUT,q{:raw});
# would "binmode (STDOUT,q{:raw }); be as good?
}
1;' | od -a
0000000 cr nl nl
0000003
bash-2.05b$ perl -v|grep 'This is';uname -r
This is perl, v5.8.0 built for cygwin-multi-64int
1.3.22(0.78/3/2)
