So why is it saved as ASCII in this case? I think all this changed
when I upgraded to Squid 2.1 ...
If I use a Linux netscape client, the download is binary, if
the client is win95 netscape, the download is ascii. The conversion
(lf to crlf) must take place when squid sends to the client.
Does squid choose between ascii and binary from the OS of the
client? If so, any way of turning this off??
