That is strange. I will try again....
1) wget from URL in first post.
2) scp to K5.
3) tar zxvf.
4) hexdump. *** only 0x0a line endings. That is good.
Now to see what was wrong before:
1) download with chrome on XP.
2) extract with winrar
3) winhex
*** CONTAINS CRs !!! (did winrar insert CRs) ???
Try different tools:
1) download with chrome
2) extract with 7-zip
3) winhex
*** CRs again! (both winrar and 7-zip insert CRs)???
Or did google chrome insert CRs *INSIDE* the tarball? ??? Let's try chrome to download, then extract it in the kindle:
1) download with chrome
2) scp to kindle
3) tar zxvf
4) hexdump *** only LFs (So, even 7-zip inserts CRs without asking?) Bad!
OK. I need to appologize to Ehhh. I thought he was disregarding my messages about his upload having CRs, when the problem is that winrar and 7-zip insert CRs without warning and without permission. That sucks! Sorry, Ehhh. My tools bit me.
