[Coco] OS9 text file format

[Allen Huffman]

In other environments, such as Microware official distributions, there were native, Unix and PC hosts and the files were, I believe, in their local formats. Microware switched to just PC hosted during my time there, but I know for sure the native packages were all OS-9 format.

Since people pull down one Disto to to build on Mac, PC, or Linux, which did the district choose? I forgot what Mac uses. I just know I never cared for PC files needing both a new line and carriage return at the end of each line. :)

The problem will happen as folks check stuff in and out.  A previous job I had stored all the files in the repository in Unix format, and converted on the way out automatically by the version control tool. But, sometimes buttons didn’t get clicked correctly and you’d have a file with a block of updates in it in the wrong format.

Can our version control platform take care of this for us?
