# -----------------------------29995809218093749221856446032^M

# file contents
# ^M <--------- extra empty line

# This will not work well for binary files: bash 3.2 is upset
# by reading NUL bytes and loses chunks of data.

# consider using simple "cat >file" instead of the entire
# fragment below.

File upload was not terminated with '$delim_line' - ??!
