That is, the web browser is adding a CR or LF (as appropriate) that wasn't there in the original file (and doesn't belong there at all, because it just so happens that a byte *looks* like one or the other without actually being such). Run wc -l on the file (on either system!) and you should see that wc(1) thinks it has 67 lines. If so, I really do think that the web server's mime types are to blame. -- gabriel rosenkoetter gr@eclipsed.net Attachment:
