I don't think it's a poor editting thing. I think this is the difference between Unix and Windows and CR/LF on Windows versus LF on Linux. The HTTP server is adding CR/LF to .txt files to display them correctly in the browser. But I can't get it to display .log files in the same manner.
Thanks both of you for the very quick replies. This is my first question via this list, and it was suprisingly fast response!
