    $ which d2u
    /usr/bin/d2u
    $ cygcheck -f /usr/bin/d2u
    dos2unix-6.0.1-1

So what does this change do again?

Before May 2011 dos2unix for Cygwin came from the Cygutils package. Cygutils also provided the commands d2u and u2d. For convenience this package also provides the commands d2u and u2d for those people who got used to these commands. On Linux this dos2unix package does not provide these commands.

Does this answer your question?

Not exactly, no, but I think I see the confusion: the part I quoted above is part of your standard boilerplate for a release announcement, not part of the list of changes in this new release. Correct?


In other words, I got the impression from your RFU message that d2u and u2d were new commands in this latest release.
