Re: Newlines in cygwin help please...


Dave Korn brought next idea :

Hello,
I'm sending text to a files via echo on 5 different lines in a shell
script | using u2d command to convert it to a dos format and then
sending it to my email. The text comes out as on big stream instead of
each echo "Text us here" going on its own line? Is there a way to get
each line to start from the far left as a newline?

Any ideas would be great!

Yes, the bug is on line 17 of your script.


Alternatively, if psychic debugging doesn't fix it, perhaps you'd care to
give us just the /slightest/ clue about what you're /actually/ doing, such as
a testcase or example script that shows the problem? What you're trying ought to work, give-or-take, so you've probably misimplemented it in some way.


    cheers,
