code at end of message -Reply

[Steve Crutchfield SCRUTCH@xxxxxxxx]

What you're seeing is the "Document Information" stuff that
XyWrite appends to the end of files. It tracks such things as
revision date, author, and so forth. Its not normally seen,
because XyWrite sticks this information after the end-of-file
marker.

If it causes a problem, you can eliminate this stuff by turning
document information off through the menus.

when i send an xy4dos file by ftp from my computer to the
network from
which i will then send it by email, or share it with someone, it has
the following codes at the bottom of the received file:

 ^Z\256LBRV\2571 \256LBLG\257ARTHUR
\256LBCD\25707CD0309
\256LBCT\25712230001 \256LBAU\257ARTHUR
\256LBMD\25707CD0309
\256LBMT\25712330552 \256LBRP\257 \256LBPJ\257
\256LBCM\257
\256LBKY\257 ^M^Z"^B\376\374\376^A^@
                                              
         
this code is hidden in the file in xy4, but appears when it has
been
ftp'd.

is there a way to strip this code before ftp'ing the file even
though
i don't see it?
