No they are not. If opened with KWrite they show characters arranged down the left-hand side - all of them. Why is this a concern to you? Is it just because you have had a problem, and in trying to trace it you came across these and panicked? If so, tell us more about the problem and we'll try to help. Sorry if you have started a thread about your problem elsewhere - if so, I've missed it. Anne
