   I created several data files on an IBM PC RT. Later on when I transfered
   these data files to other computers such as Bondwell PC (using MS DOS)
   or a ND-500 computer, the data files turned to a big mess: many lines
   become one line. I guess the problem may be due to different RETURN-codes used
   by different machines.

   Can somebody tell me how to create files on IB PC RT which can be directly
   readable on other machines ?


If the files are ascii text you need to specify the '-a' switch to doswrite.
This of course assumes you are running AOS and not AIX.  I would assume that
the AIX equivalent of doswrite would have a similar switch for transfering
ascii files.
