<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=973571913-05122002>Thanks
for the tip. I tried the code change to emma as suggested by David
Starks-Browning, and that seemed to fix my problem. Always good to keep an
eye on the EOL types though. In fact, many editors have built in functions
to do that conversion, and have little reminders in the status bar. I
configured my Ultraedit toolbar, making that function more readily accessible in
my toolbar ;-)</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

UNIX formated text file and you put a windows style text file. I have had the
inverse problem, I have downloaded a genome fasta file from the NCBI and the
program I was using to handle it was unable to open it, since it expected a
windows style text file and the downloaded file was with Unix format.<SPAN

CONVERT, it works as a pop up menu, just click the file with secondary button

there are some comand line utilities to do this (in Solaris is already built
in).</SPAN></FONT></FONT></FONT></SPAN></DIV>
