Paul Sergeant raised a question on the old Genero list back in Feb 2007 re how fgl_getfile/fgl_putfile work - and I can't see an answer to it.

If you copy ascii files using these functions, should they do any DOS/Unix conversion or should you have to do the conversion yourself?

Steve,

Files are transmitted as binary files - we don't look at the content, simply transfer the bytes.
Therefore it will be up to you to make the conversion.

Thanks Pierre .

Pierre,
Would it be possible at some point for these functions to perform the conversions as they copy the file ?  and/or the ability to open a channel that reads/writes direct from/to a file on the client (with the correct EOR marker)?
