Yeah, this may also be what's making it harder for me to understand the issues. I am actually a Windows user, although I do most of my development on Linux servers through PuTTY. I just always make sure I use editors that respect the file's line endings, and so for those things where I've used hg to version code on Windows (for example, when testing a Firefox extension) and when my colleague who does edit his code inside Windows, I've just used editors that deal with line endings. Typically, in my case, that was either Notepad2 (an awesomely light-weight Notepad replacement) or Komodo (Edit). That solved all of my issues, so I haven't had a need for win32text so far.
