I think od -c does NOT output the \n.. no, looked closely at a hd of the file. First byte of the file is 0xa, A LF ok, so thats odd. After that the lines do appear to be seperated by 0x0d, which is CR all by itself, these are NOT CR-LF windows format files, the are CR seperated files from who knows what?
My guess.. this was a browser downloaded .csv file? So line endings have been mangled by the web.
file <filename> reports these are ASCII text, with very long lines, with CR, LF line terminators. My understanding is that CR/LF is DOS style. Thanks, Rich _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
