Maybe clear some misconception up here.. there is no "Unix format." This unix format you speak of, in terms of text, is just that: *TEXT*, nothing more, nothing less, just a plain ascii file. What may be your problem, like others have said, is that you don't know the difference between ascii and binary, and are transferring ascii files in a binary mode, which is a big no-no. The client (and/or server?) will translate all of you CRLF's at the end of your lines into actual characters, which will stay with you until you either hand delete them, or like you should be doing, transferring the ascii files in ascii mode, its why just about every ftp client i can think of (even windows prompt 'ftp') allows you to set the mode to ascii.

Recommendation.... Go download TextPad (It's shareware), as it can save
files in both DOS and Unix formats. Save everthing in Unix format before
uploading or copying to the server you are compiling it on. Other reasons
for using TextPad can be found by reading through it's help files, as it's
quite powerful. I seriously recommend it for all Windows users who program
anything.
