This problem is not present in the current Sid version (maybe also it's not present in older versions). I made the following test:
a) Downloaded ASSP (which has DOS-format textfiles on it) and unzipped it in a directory. b) Checked if DOS-format textfiles were present: $ file *.txt | grep CRLF Install.txt: ASCII English text, with CRLF line terminators nodelay.txt: ASCII English text, with CRLF line terminators notspamreport.txt: ASCII text, with CRLF line terminators redremovereport.txt: ASCII English text, with CRLF line terminators redreport.txt: ASCII English text, with CRLF line terminators redre.txt: ASCII text, with CRLF line terminators spamreport.txt: ASCII text, with CRLF line terminators whiteremovereport.txt: ASCII English text, with CRLF line terminators whitereport.txt: ASCII English text, with CRLF line terminators c) Added a couple of .mp3 files to the directory d) Added the whole directory to the XMMS playlist XMMS didn't crash and I was able to reproduce my MP3 files without any problems. Thank you very much for your time and attention to details, Jose -- José M. Parrella -> Debian Sid, k2.6.18 Escuela de Ingenieria Electrica Universidad Central de Venezuela -> ucvlug.info
