Converting Unix text to windows
I am trying to FTP a text file from a machine running LynxOS and I am having problems with the way windows "sees" the characters. For example this is how windows presents the text:
DevProcRcpClass
The boxes are what I am having problems with. When viewing the same file on a Sun workstation the boxes show up as alphabetical charaters
and the spaces show up with @ symbols.
I set the transfer mode to ascii in a couple of different ftp programs and see the
same both ways. I really know nothing about unix and any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time.
