A diff to change end of line endings on all files is a perversion of that purpose. If he is shipping a tar.gz file, he should be shipping it with unix EOL markers. Correcting bugs in upstream tar files is an acceptable reason to deviate from upstream source. So yes, this is a good idea to repack it rather than diff the heck outta it. -- .....Adam Di [EMAIL PROTECTED]<URL:http://www.onShore.com/>
