Hello all, I bumped into a "feature" which might be a bug, but to be certain, I'd like to hear your opinion. I'm running ghc 6.8.2 on Windows XP, and with ghci I do the following: Prelude System.Process System.IO> (inp,outp,err,ph) <- runInteractiveProcess "kpsewhich" ["testfile.txt"] Nothing Nothing ('kpsewhich' is a simple path searching utility used by web2c TeX system, returns the full path to the file if found in the system defined search path, but you all probably know that.) and then: Prelude System.Process System.IO> hGetLine outp which gives me: "./testfile.txt\r" as opposed to "./testfile.txt" which I get on my Linux box. Is the "\r" supposed to be at the end? I thought it is part of the line separator in Windows, and as such, should not be part of the line retrieved? Same thing happens when compiled with ghc. Best Wishes, Harri K.
