Is there a way to tell jBASE to discard the CR (CHAR(13)) at the end
of the line if the file being processed was ftp'ed from DOS in binary
mode?

I have hundreds of programs to migrate from UV to jBASE with
constructs like this:

LOOP WHILE READSEQ LINE FROM FILE
*  do something with the LINE
REPEAT

Im changing in jBASE to this:

CR = CHAR(13)
LOOP
   READSEQ LINE FROM FILE ELSE BREAK
   CHANGE CR TO "" IN LINE
*  do something with the LINE
REPEAT

UV will give the same output regardless of whether the file is
terminated with LF or CRLF and Im wondering if jBASE has a switch
(perhaps an environment variable or some IOCTL option) to achieve the
same.

Thanks for any help
