can you help me to remember a command :
unix2 ???

It is to convert a Windows file to be used in UNIX.
My problem is that I have a file generated in Windows and I send it to Linux machine. The file has unreadable caracter when is opened in VI or by more command. Any solution ?
Thanks before.

Hello,

dos2unix and unix2dos are the commands.
But most ftp's are doing the transfer the right way.

If you're using rcp, you have to convert the files.

Regards
