You got a point. I do this more because I do not master the feeds issue than by conviction.
On windows I used Scite as editor and I just added a config file at the root of my project (folder) and line feeds and other stuff were set (encoding). In the editor I would see these infos for every file opened. Now on the Mac, the only editor I found dealing with big quantities of files without the need of creating projects is TextMate. Unfortunately it does not show the line feed style and has a poor management for it. The only way I found is : 1. I use TextWrangler to view line feeds and encodings 2. I use the command line with a perl command to batch convert directories, which is VERY new to me, and it does not work for nested directories. This is one of the issues which make me sometimes wish to return to Windows/Scite Editor. So, if You know a better way ... ;) On Mar 23, 9:50 pm, Quinn Taylor <[email protected]> wrote: > Fair enough. In that case, you might try "native" instead of "LF".
