If you use wordpad, everything will work fine. It formats it correctly for
linux. It also has no problem reading linux text files at all.

Take care,
Sina

It looked scrambled because unixish systems only terminate lines with
Ctrl-J, whereas DOS/Windows requires CtrlJ plus Ctrl-M. Macintosh, by the
way, only uses Ctrl-M Since Notepad is so stupid (and you insist on
continuing to use it), covert it first with:

unix2dos [filename]

When you're done:

dos2unix [filename]

But, why aren't you just editing from the command line with vim, or emacs,
or nano, or something?
