I just noticed my attachment didn't go through earlier.
I hope I'm doing this correctly this time.

OK, I guess I have to ask the really really stupid questions!!!

How is it I can't attach a file?
Step by step directions please.
Geez!! I used to know how this was done.

The forum should accept .ngc files ( I think ?) but the default for everything is just to rename to a .txt extension which will always be accepted.

I would remove On from the first line. And add % to the begining and end of the file

Heres a hexdump -C of the beginning of the file:

Code:

00000000  ef bb bf 4f 6e 0a 20 28  20 20 20 20 20 2a 2a 2a  |...On. (     ***|
00000010  2a 6e 20 2a 2a 2a 2a 20  20 20 20 20 29 0a 4e 31  |*n ****     ).N1|

Notice the first three characters have bit 7 set so somehow the file has been munged with an inappropriate
editor or something. Deleting the junk at the beginning like FariaAl said will likely get rid of the funny characters.
