The vast majority of tools nowadays work just fine with \r\n or \ (barring minor unsightlinesses like ^M at the end of each line in emacs). So why all the trouble to fix/normalize/canonicalize the newlines? The only tool i use which actively complains about them anymore is fossil. In fact, that very feature really got on my nerves a couple days ago - i was working with 3rd-party java code, typed in a commit, and left the PC. A few hours later i came back and fossil was still sitting there at the "accept CRNL?" prompt. (Then i finally took the trouble to read the docs for "crnl-glob".) -- ----- stephan beal http://wanderinghorse.net/home/stephan/ http://gplus.to/sgbeal
