ASCII 10 ??



I've been ftp-ing various LaTeX files recently and trying to read the
.doc and .tex files in XyWrite. These are all ascii files, easily
read by Emacs editor. With XyWrite, though, the lines to not end properly.
In expanded mode there appear to be LF's (ascii 10) where the
lines are supposed to end, but XyWrite ignores them. When I tried
to do a CI to replace them with a normal XyWrite paragaph end (Ctrl-Enter),
XyWrite cannot find the characters. They *look* like ASCII 10,
but aren't. The cursor won't land on them, either (it skips over them).

What's going on? It there a way in XyWrite to convert them? (The
ascii conversion filter doesn't help.) Right now I have to call
them with Emacs, save them and then call them in XyWrite.

BTW, when I was checking to see that the character looked like ascii
10, I noticed that the Insert Special menu for XyWin 4.012 is not
working this morning.... it embeds "bb" rather than the character
asked for. XyDOS 4.015 is fine.

Any ideas on either problem????

Thanks.
