OK, here is what we do.

Use VI to actually insert ^M into the file whenever you need a <CR>.

It seems like a strange way to have to handle it but at least it does work.

This doesn't work for other machines we have that use a V7 based uucp
but until SYS-V is available for everything I guess we'll just have to be
satisfied with any kludge that gets the job done.

If this isn't clear enough or you want more info feel free to contact me.

PS.  What is ca.unix?? It made inews barf!!!
