Hi All, I've been struggling with something I would like to implement.
A user asked me if it would be possible to preserve Windows EOL (CRLF) for files originating from Windows, but opened and modified in gbEdit (Gambas written texteditor). What happens now is that, if I add a few new lines to a windows originated text file, the new lines will be saved with a linux EOL (LF). The lines already having the Windows EOL (CRLF) are preserved. gbEdit makes use of a Editor control. Saving the contents is now done with a simple: File.Save($sPathFileLoaded, editMain.Text) Where $sPathFileLoaded is the full path and name of the file AND editMain.Text is the name of the Editor control holding the content. Upon opening a file gbEdit determines the EOL and returns either: CRLF for Windows EOL LF for Unix EOL CR for Classic Apple Mac EOL So I have all in place to determine when Windows EOL needs to be used upon saving. What I need is that new lines added, to a file already using Windows EOL, have to be saved with Windows EOL as well. I imagine I could save the file as a stream, making sure the proper EOL is added, but was wondering if there might be any easier way in Gambas that can do the job (as somehow that often turns out to be the case). Any suggestions? -- Kind regards, Willy (aka gbWilly) http://gambasshowcase.org/ http://howtogambas.org http://gambos.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ One dashboard for servers and applications across Physical-Virtual-Cloud Widest out-of-the-box monitoring support with 50+ applications Performance metrics, stats and reports that give you Actionable Insights Deep dive visibility with transaction tracing using APM Insight. http://ad.doubleclick.net/ddm/clk/290420510;117567292;y _______________________________________________ Gambas-user mailing list Gambas-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gambas-user
