Windows carriage returns in ZPT documents are becoming the bane of my existance.
Can anyone suggest a way to search a file for this and convert them to UNIX style carriage returns.
Preferably in Textpad, but a UNIX/Linux based technique (Emacs?) would be helpful too.
With the free editor HTML-Kit you have an option that lets you 'save Unix version' of your file EditPlus2 also has an option to convert file format. A quick google search should give you many pointers to some utilities to convert end of lines in windows. for instance: http://www.freedownloadscenter.com/Utilities/Misc__Utilities/DOS2UNIX_UNIX2D... http://www.ericphelps.com/crlf/ you also can use the DOS version of the unix tr command (available at http://lf.8k.com/TOOLS/TOOLS.HTM). for unix/linux tips on this, google a bit if you don't feel happy with http://www.cdf.toronto.edu/workathome/print.php3?id=49 Hope this helped a bit
I can't be the only one experience the explosion of this problem...
