At the beginning of each line on descriptor 2, recordio inserts the
prog process ID, along with < for input or > for output. At the end of
each line it inserts +, a space, or [EOF]; a space indicates that there
was a new line in the input or output, and [EOF] indicates the end of
input or output.

Netscape behaved properly in your other example. You could try using fixcrio,
