- The reason you're having problems is that the system you're downloading
- from uses a simple Line Feed (^J) to signify the end of a line, and
- a PC uses Carriage Return + Line Feed (^M^J). I wrote a little
- program called ADDCR that I use every time I download a text file (or
- source file) from our school's Vax. If you have a way to convert
- UUENCODEd files back to binary, let me know and I'll email the program
- to you.
