Sounds like you need to run them through the unix2dos for the text conversion. Also, if going vice versa use the dos2unix command :) cheers! |---------+------------------------------> | | "Terry R.

I use gedit and text files for creating log/journal files for different projects I work on. I do not save them with an ext. of txt I just save them. and it appears that it is in UTF-8. I also travel with my log files on my thumb drive. And when I open them on a winXP machine the files do not appear as txt files. And when I open them in notepad I get a odd charater where each space would appear.... How/which format should I save my txt files in in order to move them around and be able to read them? Also.. under xp in a txt file if the first line has '.LOG' in it .. each time it opens the date is entered. This is nice for journalling on different projects. Please advise.
