Tim,
 You just solved this puzzle for me.
 I have always used Xemacs on a Linux system to modify the file, but
apparently the file was originally created on a windows environment (I
assume). So, based on this assumption, I used the dos2unix tool to
convert the text to be Unix compliant and now the problem is fixed!

 I was assuming that Xemacs takes care of this type of conversion...

Thanks a lot!
