From: andrew@waitaki.otago.ac.nz (Andrew Thompson) Subject: ftp client corrupts binary files with ^m ?? 4 Aug 1998 04:59:06 -0700 Message-ID: References: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII To: gnu-win32@cygnus.com I have ftp.exe installed on my system. When I get text files from other servers ftp works OK but when I set ftp to 'bin' and get a binary file the file comes out a little larger and (I Think) it has ^m's inserted into the binary code, hence it does not run. Do I need to mount everyting as "text=bin" on my system currently everyting is text=!bin?? I do not understand how this system translates text files from unix type to dos type. Andrew Thompson - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
