Both fgets() and fread() will read the LF character into the buffer.
The difference is that with fgets(), the LF will always be the last
character read.

Are you sending the LF across the network to the Win95 box? If not,
it can't tell where lines end.

If you open the output file at the Windows end in text mode (i.e.
don't include `b' in the second argument to fopen()), LF should be
converted to CR LF automatically.
