It's just possible that URL Access uses the internet preferences to determine the ftp transfer mode. The documentation (Documentation ?) is silent on the point. In OS 9 you could use the internet control panel / advanced / filemapping to change performance. It was something from Stairways' older Internet Config package.
Adding the existing extension on the UNIX side to the table and calling it MacOS type TEXT might help.
Wouldn't it be nice to determine this by reading a document rather than by experimentation?
You might also postprocess the downloads to replace ASCII 10 (linefeed) with ASCII 13 (return) characters. BBEdit, MPW, perl, and other editors certainly have the capability.
