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 ). 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 in them instead of just . 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 came from unless it is there to start. Eric M.
