Hi rowdog,

Indeed any application called "editor" ought to convert eol's only on demand.

FYI I did once encounter a CA Unicenter Software Delivery command line output on win32 where a sole \r was used and required in the middle of a specific line. Win32 interpreted it as a "space" and the application really needed it as such for I/O. :-( Officially it worked as designed due to its crossplatformness :p .

Greetings
