page, his system locked up and he had to reboot. After the reboot he said his registry<br />
was corrupted and had to be restored.<br />
Has anyone seen anything like this? if so, do you have any suggestions as to<br />
probable cause and fix?<br />
Answer: Any time you don't shutdown properly, your registry can be corrupted, even<br />
if the program that did the freezing was not even using the registry.<br />
The registry is one of the stupidest ideas ever conceived in computer science. It puts<br />
ALL your eggs in one basket.<br />

Q: Does anybody know how to find out the complete path of a system default<br />
browser (if there's such) from a <strong>Java</strong> stand alone app?<br />
Answer: Under Windows you can 'invoke' the default browser calling<br />
'start filename.html', under Unix is a lot more complicated because nobody can<br />
assure you that a browser exists and the user is under X....<br />

Q: ...The problem is that, after the file is uploaded to the server, every end of line<br />
is placed with ^M character...<br />
I have written a servlet which uploads a file from client(Win32) to server (Unix). I<br />
have used DataInputStream to read the file in bytes and FileOutputStream to write<br />
the file to the location in the server.<br />
The problem is that, after the file is uploaded to the server, every end of line is placed<br />
with ^M character. This problem is faced only when I upload to Unix <strong>Server</strong> from<br />
Windows O/S.<br />
Answer: This is normal, I think. A line ends with a single return symbol in Unix and<br />
ends with a return symbol and a switching line symbol in Windows. The editor in Unix<br />
shows "^M" when it meets the switching line symbol.<br />
So to fix this bug, you can remove the switching line symbol in the end of lines when<br />
you upload files from Windows to Unix.<br />
Or Use a BufferedReader to read the source file (line by line) and a BufferedWriter to<br />
write the destination file. That way the source line separators will be discarded and<br />
the correct separators (according to the target OS) will be used.<br />
If you only have an InputStream to start with, use InputStreamReader to convert it to<br />
a reader.<br />
