  16. In response to your questions:
  17.  
  18. 1) I run spool files through sed to remove the trailing blanks:
  19.         sed 's/ *$//' <spool.blank >spool.noblank
  20.  
  21. 2) Your file transfer from UNIX to DOS should take care of the
  22.    text record separators.  If you use FTP (ASCII mode) this is
  23.    done automatically.
