Cygwin 1.7 has a newer version of grep. It was announced here: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-announce/2009-11/msg00004.html I am not updating any 1.5 packages so this won't be fixed in Cygwin 1.5. As Dave says, use Cygwin 1.7 if you want a fix for this. cgf -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
