Ok before I go busting my butt trying to test and retest can someone tell me if it is possible (and will work) to use both -b and -i options (binary and ini file) at the same time?

To be more specific, would the -i make the file readable as a regular ini file? And if so, would the data still be stored in some binary method where it would retain $cr and/or $lf's?

Thanks in advance.

INI files, by definition, do not accept newlines as a part of the stored information, so the answer to your question is: these switches cannot be combined.

Unless you have a good reason to use the -i switch, always save your data in the default hash format.

I had actually already managed to test it and figure it out.. Thanks for replying though. grin

I'm writing a script that I'm hoping will be built to last and it'll need to retain all codes.. Which is where the -i question came from.. Can't have it stripping codes which I know will happen with a regular ini file.
