Hi,
I bumped into CRLF pollution in SqueakV39.sources file and also saw the bug
report
http://bugs.squeak.org/view.php?id=6173
by Andrew.
IMHO, line endings is platform-specific (not filesystem specific). A fileout
on a FAT32 filesystem on a Linux box, should put LF in the file not CRLF.
Reader should be prepared to handle any convention while writers should be
using platform-native convention for text files.
Shouldn't this be handled in a primitive or a System Attribute? Attempting to
guess line ending in Squeak code sounds regressive.
Regards .. Subbu
