I tried to download the vpl2mod.exe (for Windows) but seems that the link is broken. Is there any other link available? Or maybe someone can provide a copy.<br><br>Thanks.<div><div></div><div class="h5"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

I had that problem (terminating characters) on linux, but not on windows. When I didn't have a windows box, I found that the vpl2mod.exe command under wine worked better than the vpl2mod script. In my case the incoming trouble had to do with the file I was working on being saved by open office as a .CSV (tab separation)<br>

"problem" errors on the terminal, and occasional "ERROR: short read of<br>terminating char in readline" errors too.<br><br>On Fri, Jun 10, 2011 at 8:13 AM, Brian J Dumont<br><<a href="http://mc/compose?to=brian.j.dumont@gmail.com" target="_blank">brian.j.dumont@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br>
