On further investigation there are two things going on. First the
error message was overwriting itself onto one line, so sticking a \n
into the s2p script solved that annoyance. Then after further
fiddling I realised that setting the fileformat=unix rather than dos
(in vim) solved the problem. The script wasn't apparently built for
cross platform work!
Thanks for the prompt response.
