The .BOO file is a regular text file.  When you try to FTP it from CU20B,
you should have your FTP program set up for text files.  From your message,
it sounds like you're FTPing to a Unix system, which would explain why the
lines end with LF rather than CRLF.  Which is fine, because that's the text
file format for Unix.  Then when you download to the PC for unbooing, the
LFs have to be converted back to CRLFs, the text-file line delimiter for
MS-DOS.  If you use Kermit to download, then make sure it's in text (not
binary or image) mode, which is the default.  In other words, if you're
using Unix Kermit, don't include the -i switch on the command line, and don't
give the command 'set file type binary'.

If you're having trouble with a copy you got over BITNET from KERMSRV, that
means that somewhere along the line, somebody's ASCII/EBCDIC translation
tables are not "standard", i.e. they don't agree with what's listed in the
IBM System/370 Reference Card.
