Hello,

I have a few comments (and not realy much more than that) on the
way Fossil implements the editing of commit messages:

- I noticed that the choice of editor seems to be a global setting
   in the repository. At least, that is the behaviour I observe
   with one repository (but that may be peculiar to that particular
   project). As editors are a highly personal choice, I would expect
   this to be a user-defined setting.

- I noticed that when I compile Fossil for MinGW, the default editor
   is not notepad in the absence of EDITOR etc. environment variables,
   but a command-line interface. I think notepad, whatever you think
   of it, would be a more natural choice.

- As I mostly work on Windows, my editor is set to write CR/LF
   line-endings. If I commit files that I forgot to save with LF
   line-endings, I get a question about this - but only for the
   first file. If I then break off the commit, repair this and try
   again, a message follows about the next file.

   Would it be possible to simply scan all the files to be committed
   and present a list of files that have a CR/LF issue, so that you
   can repair all of them at once?

Regards,

Arjen
