Platform-specific end-of-line: Mac uses Carriage Return (ASCII 13) only Unix uses Line Feed/Newline (ASCII 10) only PC uses Carriage Return (ASCII 13) + Line Feed (ASCII 10) Nothing like standardisation eh?! On the Mac, the BBEdit program (available in free Lite form as well as full paid for form) can convert between all these. On the PC TextPad (shareware) can do the same. The boxes on the Mac are the "unknown" Line Feed characters inserted on a PC, but not used by the Mac. All "unknown" characters are displayed as boxes.
