How are you determining that it is recognized as ASCII Pascal program text? I am going to guess using the program 'file' which uses various magic to determine what a file is. The only way to change that is to either make file smarter for that type of data or alter the data itself to meet what file is expecting. If you are asking about something like httpd you can add items where files ending in .ico are considered a specific data format when downloaded. -- Stephen J Smoogen. -- BSD/GNU/Linux How far that little candle throws his beams!
