Hi,
I am a newbie on unix. I met a strange problem here on Origin 2000.

I created a text data file which had 1,000 lines on my pc (Windows of
course) and upload it to my acoount on Origin.When I use vi to edit it on
Origin, I found there is a additional blank line between every 2 lines!
That makes my program cann't input this datafile.

Who know what happen here? And how can erase these additional blank lines?
Please don't say erase them line by line since I have 1000 lines there.

Thanks!
