If you use ftp in text mode, it should add the ^M when going towards
windows and remove it when going away. This *should* be automatic.
If this doesn't work, then you can handle it in your perl script.
Instead of using chomp to remove the <lf> from the end of your line, use
$line=~s/[\r\n]+$//;
this will remove \r, \n, or \r\n from the end of your line.
