Hello,
I'm sure this is an old question, but I'm obviously looking in the wrong
place for the answer.... We develop under Windows then copy source to an
HP-UX box to build. (Long story.) We're writing a Unix Perl script to
navigate the directories and convert the Windows newlines to Unix newlines.
We know all the pieces but one: What is the best way to determine if a file
is ASCII or non-ASCII?
Thanks!
Lorraine
