I tried that, but it didn't change anything. The file appeared to be binary, as I was getting plenty of non-ASCII digits. The second time I opened it, nano said "converted from Mac" formatting. Still no idea on how the file got corrupted. I've attached it (the copy before I edited it) if anyone else can make sense of it.
