Does anybody knows the ascci value of the character this function puts at the end of each line, and at the end of the last line, thanks.

On Windows systems: #13#10

On Unix systems: #10

The difference is handled by the porting set.

Even using the asc 10 , you still get problems if you need to look at this file in Windows when the file is produced in a UNIX environment. The file still wraps in Windows but looks fine in UNIX vi (except for the ^M chars). I've been plagued with this problem for days and resorted to using the shell command and modifying the file produced (after the seq.close ofcourse) by appending the "\015" character to each line using the awk command. It works well for me.

My requirement was met as follows.

Use seq.write() for the beginning, and middle of the record to be written.

Use seq.puts() for the last part of the record. seq.puts() appends the "\n"
chr$(10)
