Thats strange, text ASCII files should be viewable on any platform ... what exact error are you getting while viewing them under windows?

However, you will notice that text files saved in linux are distorted in windows, in particular, instead of a newline, you get a rectangular box. This is because of different ASCII format used by both. You can prevent this by instructing your text editor to save in DOS format. NEdit is one that can do this.
