So I was concern with the fact the FreeBSD is an application, which when you save a file withing that application use some formats proper of that application, is like word perfect document, when you save a file using wordPerfect if you try to type it from DOS it will be not possible, unless from WordPerfect when you save the file you instruct to save it in the format you want to see it. So I was wondering if by any chance, Is there a possibility that we can open the file within FreeBSD and then save it with a command of FreeBSD in ASCII or as Text file? Cause that will give me solution to this dilema. I will appreciate your response again Francis Severino PBX Technician Networks & IT Department severinof@celpage.com -----Original Message----- From: Doug White [SMTP:dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu] Sent: Wednesday, August 19, 1998 3:24 PM To: Francis Severino Cc: 'freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG' Subject: Re: your mail On Wed, 19 Aug 1998, Francis Severino wrote: > My main purpose is when I download a file from UNIX FreeBSD to my > computer which works in DOS and I try to see that file it is not > possible, all I see is so mess up which make it very difficult to > understand.
