John, - If you change the code to use a BufferedReader/BufferedWriter with "readLine()" and then write()/newLine() , then it will handle any line end combo you give it. The output will use the lineend convention of the platform you are running on.
- On Windows, it will depend on which version of the Java JRE you are using to get "IBM-1047". In older versions, you might try "Cp1047", which is equivalent.
