Hi all,

i have just updated to 1.7.1 an run in trouble.  During the previous installations there was a switch which sets the used file format Dos/Unix. This switch did not only disappear also the former uses file format (DOS) was set to Unix underhand . The result is that a lot of scripts did not work anymore because they produce  a bunch of lines " bash: $'\r': command not found" instead of the expected output.  I'm not able to filter all the scripts and files to remove the DOS line separator so I have to set the file format correctly.

As far I can see there is no topic in the user manual which covers this issue also nothing in the FAQ.

Would someone be so kind to tell me how  to do this or if this is not possible how to downgrade cygwin?

Kindly regards
Norbert
