I got the same result with Windows 7, Vista, XP, 2000, NT4, 98SE and 3.11. Yes, I have a lot VM's although I don't have 8.x. I would, however, expect the same result. On Linux a file is created named con.txt that contains hello/n as expected. -- <Wildman> GNU/Linux user #557453 "The Constitution only gives people the right to pursue happiness.
