Yes, yours. :) http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/perl5-porters/1999-04/msg02168.html http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/perl5-porters/1999-04/msg02144.html Its an old one. I happened to dig it up while researching what TO_UNIX is for in MakeMaker. The problem has largely been solved exactly as you suggested back that, Perl's newline handling has been made smarter. Just wondering if anyone is still having problems with this. If not, I'll leave it be. I might even tear out OS/2's special case. -- Michael G.
