Any notepad aficionados on the list ? ;-)

I'm new to Mac - I've started yesterday night to install the full
monty based on Darwin ports.
I understand that the default EOL is CR only:
Unix: LF
Windows: CRLF
Mac: CR
but it seems that most editors can cope with the Unix way.

I think cmlenz works with Mac computers, he probably have a better
understanding on this topic.

I did not think about the archive issue, indeed.

Yes, among others. Those are things that need to be known before
committing to the SVN repository. The answers to my previous question
(about (c) notices) could fit as well, I believe.
Maybe those are not actual "coding rules", but I think it would be
nice if this information appears somewhere on the web site.

Please let me know,
Manu
