New News:

This is a bugfix release relative to 2.05b-14, and fixes the bug reported in

The applied patch is temporary and will be replaced by a more permanent (less
kludgy) solution later.

proper packages.

Please send reports of any problems related to these packages to 
cygwin@cygwin.com and *do not* mail me personally. I moniter the list on a 
regular basis.

Old News:
========
Bash is an sh-compatible shell that incorporates useful features from the Korn
shell (ksh) and C shell (csh).
It is intended to conform to the IEEE POSIX P1003.2/ISO 9945.2 Shell and Tools
standard.
It offers functional improvements over sh for both programming and interactive
use. In addition, most sh scripts can be run by Bash without modification.
