It would appear obvious to me that as long as they are marked as text, they should be checked in with text file endings. And that means \n on Unix, and \r\n on Windows. We currently have \r\n on Unix and \r\r\n on Windows. That does not help anybody. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum
