Thanks for the quick reply.
Generally, I use geany, but sometimes just copy from terminal
window.
Example:
cat smal2
#!/bin/bash
clear
if [ "$EUID" -ne 0 ] ; then
echo -e 'Need to be root user';exit 1
fi
hexedit
00000000 23 21 2F 62 69 6E 2F 62 61 73 68 0A 63 6C 65 61 72 0A 69 66 20
5B 20 22 24 45 55 49 #!/bin/bash.clear.if [ "$EUI
0000001C 44 22 20 2D 6E 65 20 30 20 5D 20 3B 20 74 68 65 6E 0A 20 20 20
20 65 63 68 6F 20 2D D" -ne 0 ] ; then. echo -
00000038 65 20 27 4E 65 65 64 20 74 6F 20 62 65 20 72 6F 6F 74 20 75 73
65 72 27 3B 65 78 69 e 'Need to be root user';exi
00000054 74 20 31 0A 66 69 0A
t 1.fi.
Expect Linux text file of 0A and no 0D
Paste in claude.ai
#!/bin/bash clear if [ "$EUID" -ne 0 ] ; then echo -e 'Need to be
root user';exit 1 fi
Paste in google AI mode
#!/bin/bash
clear
if [ "$EUID" -ne 0 ] ; then
echo -e 'Need to be root user';exit 1
fi
So, claude.ai is replacing LF(0A) with space and thus making a
wrapped line.
But on the other end, google has a small limit of lines it lets you
paste.
