Link to Mod (http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=2214)
There are several bugs that have risen because SMF tries to correct line endings depending on the end-user's operating system. This is good for people that don't know what an editor is. For those of us that work with complex text documents, this causes corrupted files.
This mod removes the functionality in Display.php -> Download().

Hey i could not understand it .
If possible, help me out to learn about this mod using some detailed documents and pics.
There's no pics. SMF tries to convert line endings depending on your operating system when a text document is downloaded from an attachment. This mod removes that and sends you the raw attachment.
Does this bug only affects text document? How about zip files?
It only applies to files with the following extensions: 'txt', 'css', 'htm', 'html', 'php', 'xml'
All other files are left alone anyway. This just removes one piece of code that gets run, so all files are treated as binary.
