Good suggestion Jeff, but it won't be instructive as the local end of line delimiter will be linux vs Windows

So at least you can see how it displays on linux. But what is more significant is if it is sending a hex 0D 0A (CR/LF) after each line, or just a 0A. In the case of .log files, the HTTP server is only sending a 0A (LF). Gosh, I can't be the only one that has ever tried to solve this problem! Thanks for the replies and suggestions, I do appreciate your guys time.
