Is anyone successfully using usuper w/linux?

I'm using the /X command line option which cleaned up all the garbage, but anything that isn't a textfile (game output) displays with an extra carriage return.

I'm using usurper reborn, which is a modern re-write of it, it's up on github somewhere, but from my experiences with using linux and old doors extra carriage returns is usually the BBS software adding it's own CR or LF on top of what the door sends. usually something in the fossil driver is translating the LF to CRLF with the door already sending it so it doubles it up.

Without knowing more about your se-tup that's a quick guess based on my own experiences the last few months I've been setting my own stuff back up after a few years absense.

I'll try that.

Hopefully Usurper Reborn just works better. I'm not using a fossil driver with Usurper, maybe Mystic is doing it... we'll never know =p Thanks!
