Yes. But I don't see how that contradicts what I said: They aren't visible
in the xterm, just in the scriptfile. (Because I really did type in a CR.)
But this should be true for Linux as well, so, again
- FreeBSD should be the same Linux;
- If you FTP in the same mode, FTP should not insert or remove ^Ms; and
- The aren't visible in XTerms.
I think that's what I said last time . . . it's what I meant to say anyway.
