Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] win-setup.sh text mode

I'll see what I can do to fix this (since I originally did the hack about -igncr when invokig the bash shell) ...



I've committed an (ugly) hack in SVN #31538 which fixes the problem for
win-setup.sh.

(Although not currently a problem for the Wireshark Windows build, the real issue is not fixed. That is: once cygwin bash is invoked with -o igncr all further sub-shells should also run with the -o igncr option. This apparently requires doing things differently than is currently done.

For all the boring ugly details see
