trouble using scanf on double arguments under Windows2000

Tue Apr 2 02:18:00 GMT 2002

scanf() does not always work the way I think it should.
Sample program:
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
 double dstat, ddyn;
 dstat=2.;
 scanf("%lf", &ddyn);
 printf("%lf %lf\n", dstat, ddyn);
 return 0;
}
usage:
hugo <hugo.in >hugo.out
Sample input file hugo.in:
20.1
Output file hugo.out:
2.000000 201.000000
compilation:
make hugo
gcc -v yields:
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/2.95.3-4/specs
gcc version 2.95.3-4 (cygwin special)
