I tend to move files back and forth from Mac to Windows to *nix.
My windows editor (NoteTab) is unable to recognize the Mac linefeeds and
tends to make long lines of everything with little square boxes where
the linefeeds were.
So what format is best for exchanging documents between different OS's?
DOS/Windows
Mac
UNIX
EBCDIC
Dos ASCII
???
And just what is the difference between ASCII and ANSI?
I'm unsure what the linefeed are, my catchalls seem to be:
/\r\n|\n|\r/
/\f/
I think the \r\n is windows, \n is UNIX and the \f is Mac
Is it better to use the numeric equivalents?
