How do I convert CR to CR/LF for text files I download from a Unix machine? I cannot find it in the manual. All my text files arrive as one long line. Thanks! ____________________________________________________________________________ * John Babcock att!occrsh!jdsb * AT&T Network Systems jdsb@occrsh.att.com * Oklahoma City, OK Disclaimer: I speak on my own, not as AT&T.

Thanks! >____________________________________________________________________________ You want to create a file transfer filter that translates 010 to 013 when viewed with the ascii code settings. Then in the file transfer options dialog, select use filter. Be sure to turn this off when downloading other files, as it could cause problems with other regular Binary files transfers. -- Norm Goodger SysOp - MacInfo BBS @415-795-8862 3Com Corp.

Similar question: How to convert CR to CRLF (for transferring to PC) and vice versa? The filter seems to only translate one character to another. Here I need to translate 1 character (CR) to two characters (CRLF)? There is an option (cmdOM) "Return key sends CR and LF" -- is that related? Doesn't sound like it would work for CR embedded in file transfer. If not available within White Knight, are there utilities to do this translation? Thanks for your help! -Drew Wade drew@objy.com
