Hi Lisa,

	A .pl or .cgi is a text file, use whatever editor you normally use.  When you upload/download it off a web server make sure it goes up/down as an ASCII file(and not a binary file).

Hi all,
I am looking into using some cgi scripts. When I download the .pl file it
doesn't open automatically. What's the best program to open it? I can open
it using notepad but it is so hard to read. The text is all together and has
two big black marks everywhere, are these carriage returns?
Thanks
Lisa.
