Do you have a Java interpreter installed on your machine? I could bang off a Java text editor for you.

Or you could try http://www.mac.org/utilities/texeditplus/ . This is a mac text editor that mentions it will reformat text for MS-DOS BBSs. This might save the text in the right format.

It's interesting that the Mac doesn't have trouble with the extra carriage return character in DOS text files. I guess it just ingores it.

quote: #include <iostream.h> cout << "string\n"; or cout << "string" << end1; where 'string' is the text string.

So, actually this is a C++ program, not a C program, if anyone really wanted to try that out somewhere C would use printf statements instead, as well as a slightly different file to include. The printf statement in place of cout might have even helped Smash get the gist of the code just from context.

also, can anyone spot the typo in the alternate way to print a new line?

thats right! the 1 should be an l
(lower case 'L')

As one other side note to the actual problem, I'm surprised I didn't think of that - there are a lot of people who load their programs from notepad to UNIX and I always have them do a search and replace on all those pesky little carriage returns (^M) - they don't affect anything compilerwise, but do confuse text editors like emacs.

and my appologies to Tom and Steve - like i said, i've been spending too long today pointing out the obvious and just couldn't help myself

edit: odd - I just tried to edit this page, since the <iostream.h> was missing in my original post - but its already there???

I tryed to make a OCC game that would have things that I think make it hard.No Shake's means Mono and cathedral slowing the effect of "we love days"

No Ike's means slower science.

Less civ means less help with techs and tribute.

I made 2 civs have vendettas but it doesn't give consistant results.

It was meant as a small puzzle just for something different.You'll notice the city is not well placed for OCC.I wanted the player to have to build a palace and have a supported settler as a result of disbanding Mingapulco.You can't disband with 1 city so it was meant to give few seconds of puzzle solving.

I now feel enlighted and educated! Plus I get to write the authors of MacSecrets and point out their error about ASCII being cross-platform!
