\r\n would be the standard Windows line endings for text (and XML?) files. But most text etc. editors can handle both "Windows" (CRLF) and "Unix" (LF) line endings. As OSM files received via the API have Unix line endings and as JOSM uses (at least by default) Unix line endings - so it's always \n only - I think it would be kind of strange if the default wouldn't also be Unix line endings for your lib. Browsers don't change line endings (if you save an OSM file received via the API, you get \n only). Only FTP programs convert if text (not binary!) transfer mode is used. /al _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
