RE: AW: parse error before `{', stray '\' in program

Yet another proposal:

Install a CVS-Server somewhere on a Linux machine.
When You check out Your sources to Windows, You have \r\n
When You check out Your sources to Linux, You have \n

So You can edit on every platform with the native end-of-line
format. And, anyway, it gives you a lot of advantages
in concurrent programming.

I am not a fan of the dos2unix, and unix2dos tools.
dos2unix is o.k., but unix2dos can also create files
with \r\r\n line feeds, if you use it unintentionally
twice on the same file. If you dont want CVS, i wuld
recommend UltraEdit for editing and DOS/UNIX and
vice versa conversion.

I would use Unix file formats if i can!
The problem is: We have developers on Windows. They are

working with the

quoted

same library as we are. Visual Studio produce this f...

<cr><lf> or ^M or

quoted

\r\n. And we are generatin code from Rose. This cause the

same problems.

Visual Studio has no problems with \n, but if someone save

the file with

quoted

Visual Studio, the problem occurs. (The same is with Rose)
gcc 3.2 on host has no problem with this <cr><lf>. Is there

allready a cross

quoted

compiler (ppc_8xx-gcc) with verision 3.2? Or how difficult

is it to build a

quoted

new compiler?

Why don't you use dos2unix command ?
