Um, why?  That is, why does cat>foo produce LF files while hello>foo
produces CRLF files?

Is this different in MinGW than under Cygwin?  (I'm probably just dumb,
but I cannot infer this behavior from
http://www.cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-textbinary.html.)

Can we easily get cat>foo (or some equivalent) to produce CRLF files?
That seems like it would be a tiny bit cleaner to me than deleting the
\r from the hello>foo output.

Thanks,
karl
