Not on Unix systems, of course. But on Woe32 systems, writing text with CR/LF is the normal thing to do. The problem is only with Cygwin, because Cygwin is a POSIX implementation on one hand, and running inside a Woe32 box on the other hand. They solve this conflict like this: http://www.cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-textbinary.html Bruno
