To all,

Thank you for the responses.

I have resigned myself to the long and arduous task of using Borland's
FCONVERT.EXE to convert all of my configuration scripts from ANSI to OEM
format (strip out <CR>).  For the number of files I have, this appears
to be a long task.

This closes out one problem, but makes me wonder, why do the GNU scripts
from the .tar.gz files at the main ftp site have <CR><LF> in them
instead of just <LF>.  They are identified as UNIX scripts, but appear
to have a PC flavor to them.  Since I haven't edited them ("cat
{filename} | more" instead) I can't figure out where the <CR> came from
unless it is there to start.
