This will give you the correct end of line marker. The inverse M is the CR character from the CR/LF pair. Minix only uses a LF to mark the end of line. You could also do with getting yourself a decent uudecode, as the supplied minix version is pretty poor. The best uudecoder around, uud.c, is available on the bradford PD server. Send "help" to server@brad.marvin for help on how to use this server. Mark Powell ARPAnet : sq79%liv.ac.uk@{ucl-cs.arpa,cs.ucl.ac.uk} JANET : sq79@uk.ac.liv USENET : ...!mcvax!ukc!liv.ac.uk!sq79
