FC4 - text file collapses??
I am having this weird problem.
I have tried to open some text-files (which don't have any extensions) with emacs and found out that some files have been garbled and completely unreadable. I am able to open these files by KWrite (I'm using KDE) but it also tells that the files are binary: The file file:///home/naruto/doc/memo/xmms_mp3and it shows many strange characters. This happened three times before. I open files without any problems, but one day they get garbled. Has anyone experienced the same problem? Any help appreciated. I'm on Fedora Core 4. |
It is a really really strange problem
Indeed did you accidentaly overwrite the text file with an other binary file? |
Hi TruongAn
>Indeed did you accidentaly overwrite the text file with an other binary file? I don't think so. I am not talking about only one file, but several files and it seems unlikely that I overwrite some text files with binary files by mistake. Besides, text files are put in a separate directory and this directory doesn't include any binary files. And maybe I was not clear in the first message, but I can open readable files by KWrite. But they also includes many strange letters, too, besides the original text. |
