How can I copy a file from VMS to Windows and back again?
- by Matt Joslin
I am trying to copy C source files from a vms alpha to a windows machine to allow easier editing of the code. (VMS editor is just a text editor and it would be nice to have syntax highlighting etc)
I can copy this across using Exceed FTP and this handles the issue of duplicate filenames with version suffix that vms has:
File.c;1
File.c;2
Flle.c;3
But when I open a file I've transferred, all the line breaks have been lost and the entire file is just one line.
Can anyone recommend a solution to this or offer any hints?
Thanks in advance
ps. I need to be able to copy the files back to vms and still maintain format.
