It would be nice if we never had to deal with this, but the issue can
be solved by applying<br>
$ dos2unix myfile.dat<br>
before running the files in linux. Interestingly, those files will then
run on both windows and linux.<br>
I think this page describes the problem in general: <a

<title>linux datafile issues</title>
<!-- Converted from text/plain format -->
<br>
<p><font size="2">Hi all<br>
<br>
I have a Dell 64 bit box with both Windows Vista and Linux (Ubuntu 8.1
Intrepid Ibex) where ADMB is installed for Visual Studio 2005 (VC8).
I am trying to migrate over to linux for all my analyses (and in
general).<br>
<br>
I've successfully installed ADMB for linux on this machine and can run
all the posted examples but am running into some trouble with how the
linux version of ADMB read in datafiles.<br>
<br>
I have a big model that uses several large data input files. In most
cases, these datafiles are written by other programs that parse and
sort the data I use into a usable format. These datafiles were
originally created using either windows based R, Excel or Access.<br>
<br>
In the Visual C++ installation blank spaces and blank lines are ignored
in the datafile. But I notice using the Linux version that datafiles
that i created in using excel/access to be read in properly I need go
through it and manually remove all the blank lines and carriage
returns. It's as if compile Linux version sees values in leading and
trailing white spaces that aren't visible using Gedit.<br>
<br>
So my question is do Linux builds expect different ANSI text coding for
the datafile?<br>
<br>
Any thoughts would be profoundly appreciated!<br>
<br>
