Line Ending

[Simo Sorce]

Ok I feared it was that :-)

And no, we do not support that, because it is much more complicated to
do than it seems, and we do not like to corrupt files, so we never touch
them.

Best thing is to use good editors with support for multiple file
formats.

Anyway, if you really need this oprions, you may (or pay someone to)
write a VFS module that implements such functionality.

Simo.
