    Hi Vincent,

    On 2025-03-04 17:23:04, you wrote to All:

    I use makenl 3.5.1 under Linux and the o/p file region25.nnn has a
    binary value at the end of file that Ward (2:0) cannot handle in his
    Dos environment.

    Sure he can. Every "normal" nodelist or segment ends with that character, and always has! It's even documented in: http://ftsc.org/docs/fts-0005.003
    The Z2 nodelists I get from Ward also end with that character...

    So I think something else is going on.

    Does any one have a fix for it as I have tried using unix2dos and
    cannot find setting to omit it.

    There is no need to.

    Out of interest it is 1a hex that is just after hex 0d oa i.e.,

    0000930 7265 2e73 656e 2c74 4249 0d4e 1a0a

    Above from hexdump

    Short of hacking the makenl code (assuming I find the code).

    There is no need to.


    Bye, Wilfred.
