HA HA, I found the glitch.
any2string adds a terminating "0" (zero) to the list of chars. When I remove that "offending character" the file is properly recognized by my gnome editor.
Excellent, thanks again Martin. Now, if we could solve the comport problem :)

Oh. Do you mean that it won't open in a text editor or that it doesn't have a text icon, or both?

text file?
On most systems, just make sure the last 4 characters of the file name
are
".txt".
