File Format

Hello,

We have a type of ASCII files that we need to process in UNIX. I have no issues opening them in windows (using notepad etc.)

but when i process it on UNIX i get below: (it has thousands of lines in it)

[root@www root]# file test.out
test.out: ASCII text, with very long lines, with no line terminators
[root@www root]# wc -l test.out
0 test.out
[root@www root]#

Is there any technique to have it properly line terminated.

Pls Advise.

TIA
Prvn
