I was under the impression that the default value for binmode was on.  However
the using-cygwinenv.html page states:

(no)binmode - if set, unspecified file opens default to binary mode (no
CR/LF/Ctrl-Z translations) instead of text mode. Defaults to not set (text
mode). This option must be set before starting a Cygwin shell to have an effect
on redirection.

So, is the user guide correct?

Happy Holidays,
