Word and Notepad on the PC doesn't seem to recognize the newline characters used to separate the text I've written in PERL into readable lines. Funny, I never had this problem on a Mac using Word....So I download what I've written from my remote host, and its all run together into one HUGE line. When I upload, Word inserts different characters in for ITS newlines. How can I deal with this? Any suggestions? Other free software I might looking into to help me out in writing my perl on my PC and then uploading it to my host?
Thanks for any help.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
