[U-Boot-Users] autoscr can't execute script in u-boot 1.2.0

[frisky_linux <frisky_linux@163.com>]

Yes! You are right!
My test.txt has one '0x0D' at the end of the line:( It should be '0x0A',not '0x0D 0x0A'.
I have copied a DOS text file.
Thank you!

Note that you *append* to "test.txt" here, so you probably already
have garbage in that file... ?

This looks wrong to me.

If you execute the commands above with an empty/nonexisting file
"test.txt", the result should be:

- > ls -l test.txt
-rw-rw-r-- 1 wd wd 18 Sep 26 08:44 test.txt

i.e. the file should be 18 bytes, not 19 as in your case.

It seems you already had one byte of garbage in "test.txt"

This works fine for me:

I thing what you see is a GIGO effect (garbage in, garbage out)...
