String Handling in GrADS1.9.0-rc1 win32

[Stephen R McMillan]

Hello Arlindo,
I added CYGWIN=nobinmode to my system variables, restarted pc, then tested 
same script on a DOS-style (ANSI) text file. Same problem as before: it 
reads the data in the text, but "mis-handles" the strings. It did  handle 
the dos2unix'ed data file okay, as in most recent test.

The specific error message is "non-numeric args to numeric operation" 
where it encounters the line "r=c-d". However, it's also not handling the 
date-matching IF statement's correctly in these instances.

Any clues here?
Stephen Mc

Arlindo, looks like the string-handling problem has been resolved. See my 
comments ("SMc: ....") below. Thanks!


Could you run another test for me? Set the environment variable

set CYGWIN=nobinmode

and run it again on DOS-style text files. Does it work now?
