now fixed in svn.

fgets() stores the newline char, so the module had an extra command to
strip it off. but on Windows apparently it doesn't store it but the
module went ahead and stripped off the last char anyway.
The dos/mac/unix friendly G_getl2() grass function doesn't store
the newline so you don't need to strip it off, so now it should work
everywhere.

I just expanded the help text. The magic word is "end".
(^D often works for that in UNIX, but maybe in DOS that is F6?
