when using ftp and same file, same server,
the linebreaks are converted to unix linebreaks.

Re: SFTP and ascii mode?
Hello,
Well, if you want to transfer files in ASCII mode to a SCP/SFTP server, you should try WinSCP (http://winscp.sourceforge.net/eng/), but it isn't as fast as FileZilla.

SFTP in general allows ASCII transfers only in version 4. FileZilla uses parts of the PuTTY suite, which currently doesn't support this feature. Have a look at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgta ... dings.html for details.mango wrote:can i use ascii mode in sftp?
