Sure I can ftp. But usually I search for the draft I want using my browser,
and it would be clumsier to have to shift to ftp instead of clicking.
It is easier to retrieve them from any of the mirror sites
that download them via my browser in CR-LF format.
Only the official site gives me in "Unix" format.
It would be great to enable choosing the format desired by right-clicking.

Use ftp to retrieve them. Set ASCII mode. Your line ending problems will be
solved.

Yes, it is easy enough to convert this for simple reading on Windows machines,
but it is inconvenient to have to do this every time.
Could it be possible to change the default here ?
