Peter,
Thanks for your response. Is this really my only option? I know that I can
also "convert" the file by reading and writing the file in IDL character by
character and replacing the line endings. The problem is that this adds
significant overhead when lots of files 100MB each are written. Therefore I
wanted to write the files correct the first time around. I was wondering if
adding \r\n to the format statement would do the trick?
