To prevent problems with your files in the first place, you can save
them as DOS/Windows Style text from most editors. I assume kedit has
this functionality. Check in "help" for more information. (I'd look but
I don't run K).

Subject: [RLUG] VFAT 32


Hi Folks,

I finally got MEPIS Linux to access my VFAT 32 partitions.  I was able
to update some simple text files but ran into two problems:

(1) End-of-lines were replaced by unprintable characters.  I think 0d0ah
was being replaced by 0ah.

(2) I would end up with two versions of the file; one FILENAME.EXT the
way I wanted it; the other as FILENAME.EXT~ without any changes applied.
(I only want the first one.)

I was using Kedit.

Any thoughts on how to fix these?

Jennifer
