Running on OS 10.4.6, RB 2006r2

I have a shell class that I use to execute this command:

'cat /path/to/some/text/file'

This file has line endings of chr(13)+chr(10)

If I execute this command in the Terminal and direct its output to another file, I get an exact copy of the contents of the original file. Line endings and all.

However, if I execute the same thing using the Shell class, it appears that it strips out the linefeed character. When I do a countfields on chr(10), I get one when there should be about 80. If I write this to a file, I get a file with just chr(13) as a line ending.

Any ideas on why this is and what I can do to prevent this?
