RE: Unix file to PC, weird LF-CR

[jpcarr@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

Skip all that stuff,   FTP it to the IFS,  then read it byte by byte with
an RPGIV program and interigate it yourself,  throw away what you don't
want,  write the fields/records when you want to.

RPGIV with the Unix  Open/Read/Close API's are alot easier than looking at
it with some tool like word pad and wondering what you are seeing.  Plus,
the Bytes you see in the RPG program is what it is in EBCIDIC the way you
are going to store them anyway.

just  $.02

If you need to replace the lf character with a cr/lf before moving the file
to the 400, open the file in an editor like Text Pad that supports hex and
do a global search and replace.

This is a one shot solution that assumes the file is small enough to open
in
a reasonably capable editor.
