I want to copy the text output from a 'nohup.out' file.

Hello,

I have a nohup.out file that, when executed, outputs a spreadsheet file
with four-to-seven columns of number. I want to copy this output (in its entirety), so that I could then paste it on excel@ , or Notepad@.

Please help, thanks.

Just scp it across from your *nix machine to your Windows machine - then open it however you require.

Cheers,
ZB

I do not follow your method. Could you explain me in layman terms, like in step-by-step....A-B-C.....1-2-3.....I just don't want to do anything that would delete all my files okay.

Logon to your pc,

mkdir \download
cd \download
start => run => cmd
ftp <unixseervername>
#Supply username and password
ascii
get /path/to/the/file/file
bye

start excel \download\file
