Re: Stripping CR from text files

It turns out that the error occurs not during the save, but actually on a copy. When I use copy and paste to copy the file from an IFS folder on one machine to another folder on a different machine, the CRLFs get changed to LFs.

Very unexpected.

Has anybody noticed that when editing an ASCII text file in the IFS that RDi will strip the CRs leaving only LFs?

I only just noticed it and really I thought I would have seen it before this. But maybe it's something people have seen before. Or maybe it's a setting somewhere that I missed. The files are CCSID 437 and they come up in the editor fine, but after I save them I go in and look and magically all my 0D0A have been changed to 0A only.

Yay! Yeah,not so much - other editors find it annoying. :)
