I have complained before about BBEdit's inability to handle files with mixed line ends and I had pretty much resigned myself to the truth of the axiom that "it never happens". Well, it does to me but perhaps I'm the only one who deals with text strings from instruments that still think they're talking to a teletype machine.
The problem with dealing with mixed line ends is it's impossible to tell how to interpret a CRLF pair. Is that a broken file, with two lines, or a good file with one?
We assume the file will contain the _first_ pattern we see. Naked LF? Unix. CR? Mac.
Sometime during the 8.0 cycle, we added a command to the Text menu called Normalize Line Endings. That should have done what you wanted (after the fact).
