Simone--
I am not sure what follows is relevant, but here is my experience.
I write EnSight gold case files on both dos (WindowsXP) and Linux. When
I take my dos-formatted case files to Linux for EnSight to read I must
run them through dos2unix to get the line terminators changed before
EnSight can read them without getting confused. I have not tried
PV-on-Linux reading dos-formatted case files, nor have I tried the
reverse. (The two test-file translators dos2unix and unix2dos are quite
useful.)
I have attached a typical (for me) case file
