Sir, we appreciate your prompt response, but the truth is that eventthough with the command perl and trace we have being able to see better the file still is not quite good, the end of line (LF) are not converted or don't appear. So I was concern with the fact the FreeBSD is an application, which when you save a file withing that application use some formats proper of that application, is like word perfect document, when you save a file using wordPerfect if you try to type it from DOS it will be not possible, unless from WordPerfect when you save the file you instruct to save it in the format you want to see it.  So I was wondering if by any chance, Is there a possibility that we can open the file within FreeBSD and then save it with a command of FreeBSD in ASCII or as Text file? Cause that will give me solution to this dilema. I will appreciate your response again

Use FTP ASCII mode instead.
