Bash with Dos File problem

[Larry Johnson]

Hello,

I am running GNU Bash 3.2.9(11) on a PC with Vista and using Cygwin.

For the most part everything works well.  I was installing some software that 
came with bash installation scripts.  I discovered the script failed on an 
statement "case $ARGV in" with syntax error of unexpected token 'in'.

I discovered the problem was that the script file was in Dos format with the LF 
and CR at the end of the line.  When I removed the CR (using dos2unix), the 
script worked fine. I use lots of Bash scripts in Dos format with no problems.  
It appears that it is only a problem for the "case" statement.

Is there a newer version of Bash that does not have this problem?

Thanks,

Larry
