grep: $ in PATTERN doesn't seem to work properly


Hi,

When $ is used in the PATTERN of grep command, it doesn't seem to work
properly on my machine.

I have run the following under cygwin.bat shell.

$ cat tmp
Line 1
Line 2

Line 3
Line 4
Line 5

$ grep '1$' tmp
(Gives no output. It should give output as
Line 1)

$ grep -e '1$ tmp
(Gives no output. It should give output as
Line 1)

$ grep -v '^$' tmp
(Gives no output. It should give output as
Line 1
Line 2
Line 3
Line 4
Line 5)

I am also attaching the output of "cygcheck -s -v -r". Can someone
please tell what's going wrong? Install problem or other?

Thanks,
Seshasai
