Looks good.
The version of Bash I HAD was version 3.1.17(9) this was downloaded from
Cygwin as 3.1-9 (Cygwin has another version 3.2.3-5 which I did not
try).
Followinf your emails I downloaded an earlier version 3.1.17(6) from
Cygwin as 3.1-6 and this has worked. Thanks for the help it looks like
the new line characters and bash version caused the problem.
Below is the output I got using Bash 3.1.17(6)

It is likely that you have tripped over a Cygwin bash problem where the
latest version expects *nix line endings.
Check your bash version by using "bash --version". AFAIK 3.1.17 or
earlier are OK. If you have a later version I think you can downgrade
using the Cygwin setup app.
As it seems unlikely that the Cygwin folks are going to revert the
change I think we should do something about this issue, e.g. passing the
"-O igncr" option to bash.
