txt file format?

I am currently working on a project were I need to transfer information from a microcontroller to a pc. I want the information to be sent as a text file and use windows hyperterminal. Does anyone know what format text files are in? Is it just ASCII?
 

Re: txt file format?

ASCII protocol will be OK.
Hyperterminal will display these characters as text on the PC screen.

The best one is ASCII! For the Hyper Terminal, dispaying the character is no problem in ASCII protocol.
It will be simple when you write a converter in microcontroller if neccessery.

Yes, it is ASCII format. Remember to attach the End Of File (EOF) at the ending of your file to interect with PC based program.
