Neither of those editors are even close to being a
functional programming editor. I strongly
suggest you get one and find out how much better your life
can be. See Outside Links for lots of suggestions.
It is quite possible that you are suffering from the end of
line differences which unix and ms-dos/win systems have.
I don't know what your remote host is, but if it's a unix
system, then it expects the EOL/newline character to be
LF aka \n (^J, 0x0a). MS-DOS and its progeny use
CRLF aka \r\n (^M^J, 0x0d0a) to signify end of line. I use
my editor to remove extra CRs (^M) from files I've brought
over from PCs. Perl can do that too, but it's just simpler
to use a good editor.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
