Problem w/ MS VC++ & Unix FTP Server

[kuphryn]

Hi!

I have a problem with Microsoft Visual C++ 6 Standard and Unix ftp server. I do programming at school under Win2k Pro and Microsoft Visual C++ 6 Professional. I save the source code on the school server. I download the files from school computer to my home computer via ftp. For some reason, when I open the source code at home, I get an error that: "Lines ending with only a carriage return have been detected. This will be modified to include a line feed."

That is a major setback for me because I always have to go and fix the spaces after it fixes it. Is there a way to go around this or completely eliminate the problem? How about archiving it in zip or rar?

Thanks,
Kuphryn

Did you upload in binary mode?

Yup, there is the problem. Unix ftp servers need to have the clients put in binary mode.

Just do from the command lineL

ftp my.ftp.com
.
.
.
username
password
bin

then just download the files as before.

Thanks.

Download in binary mode does the job.
