what do you mean - 'directly'? it's impossible. you should use samba
on linux or ftp - there is no other solutions, afaik.

1. change your editor. i prefer me (www.multiedit.com), correctly handles
many problems, but, i'm afraid, not a beginners tool.

2. you can use
perl -p -i -e 's/\r//g' filename        # dos->unix
perl -p -i -e 's/\n/\r\n/g' filename    # unix->dos
on your linux.

3. you can setup X server on your windows computer, and run linux
editor's (emacs, nvi, ... ) from linux. this is a long song, but i
can sing, if anyone is interested :)

RW>          Thanks but no cigar yet ;-)
no smoking:) want to die at full health :) (sort of humor)

Best wishes,
