Re: Writing binary files is not working properly

[robert Macy]

I don't think a "conversion" utility will be effective in
this case.  

As I said, simply replacing 0D 0A with 0A works some times,
but sometimes the DATA has a valid 0D 0A series which
imappropriately changing that sequence really screws the
file up.
