a unicode document comes in two flavors UTF8 and UCS2 in windows UTF8 "may" work, but UCS2 cannot work, as it is 2 bytes per character.

UTF8 will not work if wordpad puts a byte order sentinal at the begining or if you use any characters above 0x7e (or 0x7f?)

use ascii (DOS format) to save your files, but beware of line ending problems...

why not just use nano/pico?

Hi,

I have tried editing some Asterisk config files (ie sip.conf) in MS Word Pad and I have saved the files as 'Unicode Text Document' with quotes around the full file name => "sip.conf" and then uploaded the files to a Linux server using FileZilla. When I do this the config files fail to work. Although I am somewhat proficient at using 'vi' I find it easier to cut and paste with Word Pad (I know I can cut and paste with 'vi'... ). Is this possible to do or am I all wet...

Thanks
