I am a Librarian on the Aquarium Fish Forums (GO AQUAFORUM & GO AQUADATA). I am
having a problem uploading ASCii files to my Library's.

The problem is that when people using TAPCIS try to read these uploaded files
all they see is the line reading over itself.  Undoubtly TAP does not make a
linefeed at the Carriage Returns.

All of the other staff members using various Term programs from Mac
(NAVIGATOR), Commodore Term (And several other COMMODORE Terminals), Along with
me (OSTERM, and UltimTerm (RS-DOS)), have had no problem reading these files. I
did have the problem with Telstar (OS9).

I am using SSTAR to make the files.  According to one of the SYSOPS, I do not
have a Line Feed and Carriage return at the end of each line, just a ,
therefor, TAPCIS will not administer a LF, and the lines will run all over each
other.

Let me know if you can help, I am desparate to find out what is wrong.
