Re: [MacPerl] Mac to Unix & back?

Let me venture a guess and say that you used BBEdit to change the line endings
with that little pull-down menu. Then you Fetch'ed it up to the Unix box.

That would be the problem. This happens to me all the time. 
BBEdit is ok - but not with Fetch after converting the line breaks.
Put it back to Mac in BBEdit, and send it up again like normal.

BTW - using BBEdit 4.5.2 you can open files directly off an FTP server,
there you will see that the line breaks are Unix. Keep em Mac on your Mac
and let Fetch do the convert on the way up.

This might be the problem ,as it has happened to me quite a few times :-)

later...
