use pico [pine editor] for pasting, it works good for stuff like that. or just
paste it into notepad on the windows machine and then ftp it as text file to
the linux machine, that should convert the crlf's on the ends of the lines to
proper format for linux.

if you use the pico, make sure that none of the long lines got autowrapped :)
