1 B.3.1.5 Using 'gawk' In The MSYS Environment
1 ............................................
1 
1 In the MSYS environment under MS-Windows, 'gawk' automatically uses
1 binary mode for reading and writing files.  Thus, there is no need to
1 use the 'BINMODE' variable.
1 
1    This can cause problems with other Unix-like components that have
1 been ported to MS-Windows that expect 'gawk' to do automatic translation
1 of '"\r\n"', because it won't.
