Well this get curiouser and curiouser. I put an ascii file on our bsd 4.3 unix machine with each line terminated by a $d $a (cr,lf) and downloaded to our //e+ runing prodos and kermit 3.85. When i down loaded using 3.85 file-format of text the $a's went away. Then i changed the file-format to bin and downloaded the same file and the $a's remained. So 3.85 works properly on prodos and dos???????????? Got any ideas????????????? >-- End Original Message -- -- End Forwarded Mail --
