Re: Formatting ASCII to be read by Windows NotePad

I have a nice PERL script I use to generate CISCO configurations

No need to shout - neither Perl nor Cisco are acronyms.

when I FTP the files to my Windows XP PC and try to read them in
Notepad, there is clearly no line wrap that Notepad understands. If I
otherwise read the file into WordPad first, save the file, then open
into Notepad, the formatting presents correctly.

Transfer the files in text mode. That will translate the line endings
as needed.
