Hi all,

At some point in making and finding bugs, I am left with having to pick up 
pieces. On my mac I could always just read the whole changes file into a text 
editor and extract manually the tail bit.

Having moved on to Ubuntu 8.04 my tools don't seem to match my needs.

The Gedit editor refuses to read the text because it is in a format it can't 
decode. It tries Utf-8 and latin1.

The Emacs editor will gladly read in the file but because the line endings are 
cr rather than crlf I get a file all on one line. 

My emacs skills are rusty so I've not figured out what to do next. 

Is there anyone out there who has deal with changes files and linux editors? 
What might work most elegantly or robustly? 

Yours in curiosity and service, --Jerome Peace
