Technically, a 'text' download will allow end-of-line (<cr> and <lf>) conversions and only guarantee 7-bit ASCII chars. A 'binary' download will do no EOL conversions and preserve 8-bit bytes. When in doubt always use a binary (image) mode. Text conversion can be done after the download. --Steve -- --Steve (apple2pd@ground.ecn.uiowa.edu)
