G'day,
Just fishing for the best way to append two binary files together into
another file.
Under normal 'nix I can just "cat file1 file2 >file3", but under cygwin
these binary files are truncated at the first ^z.
I know I can turn off text mode with either the CYGWIN environment variable
or by using mount options, but I'd be interested in what the best way of
doing this is.
Don
