it's also possible to set modes in your program on per file basis, like this:
#include <io.h>
#include <sys/fcntl.h>
...
int main (int argc, char** argv)
{
...
setmode (0, O_BINARY); /* set stdin mode to binary */
setmode (1, O_TEXT);
setmode (2, O_TEXT); /* while stdout and stderr to text */
...
}
of course, in your case, particular modes may be different.
