That is exactly what you said, tho - your post is quoted in it's
entirety above.

Only if you quote back the portions of the message you are responding to
properly, and respond accordingly. From what is shown above (which is
exactly what you posted, and what Eric responded to), you are claiming
"This happens when ftping between a windows box and a linux box. The
windows box uses a carriage return and a new line, i.e., \r\n Where
Linux just used \n."
That's a pretty clear and direct statement on your part, don't you
think? If you meant something else, you didn't include it in that post.
