Difference between Sun OS and Cygwin?

[Robert Mark Bram]

Howdy all!

Can anyone tell me why I am seeing this difference between Sun and Cygwin?


On a Sun machine

bash-2.03$ cat > filter
one.doc
^C
bash-2.03$ cat filter
one.doc
bash-2.03$ grep .doc$ filter
one.doc
bash-2.03$ cat filter | grep .doc$
one.doc
bash-2.03$

Robert Mark Bram@DIJONG /home/Rob/
$ cat > filter
one.doc


On Cygwin

Robert Mark Bram@DIJONG /home/Rob/
$ cat filter
one.doc

Robert Mark Bram@DIJONG /home/Rob/
$ grep .doc$ filter
one.doc

Robert Mark Bram@DIJONG /home/Rob/
$ cat filter | grep .doc$

Robert Mark Bram@DIJONG /home/Rob/
$

Any help would be appreciated!

Rob
