Shannon, Perl scripts are text files. Therefore, they should be up- and downloaded in text mode (ftp). This will translate e. g. line feeds/breaks to the platform specific character(s) automatically. It seems very likely that you had the problems you had because you used your ftp client app in binary mode which will not perform any translations. Obviously, your ftp client app did not recognize the Perl scripts as text files and switch to text mode automatically. This is, of course, not a Perl issue but a Macintosh issue.
