Comment:

I made an ASCII drawing in a .TXT file ... When I type "type drawing.txt" in MS-DOS, some lines of my drawing are empty (like a carriage return); but when I open the .TXT file in windows, there is no problem. Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

THANKS

Maybe there are extra blank spaces at the ends of some lines that wrap onto the next line which look like blank lines. Or maybe the lines are too long.

When you are in you editor, press the End key and then delete back to the last character you want displayed. That should prevent wraps.
