Hello there, I have here a bit of confusion with fread. I have here a .cue file generated in windows. I tried to read through the entire file in windows and when I printed the buffer, it gives me the correct content of the file, but when I read it in linux, it skips one letter. Any ideas why? Thanks. :)

That does sound odd. Can you post:
1. an example of the file
2. examples of what you are seeing in windows and in linux
3. the code you are using

A cue file is a text file, no? Why are you using fread() instead of something like fgets()?

First letter? Last letter? The 25th letter? 12th letter on line 4?
Did you read this?

apply dos2unix utility on the file and rerun the program.
