Spyder: Add a way of changing and converting EOL characters between different standards independent of OS

Created on 24 Feb 2015  ·  3Comments  ·  Source: spyder-ide/spyder

As in title, I find myself moving files between different operating systems quite frequently (or even between cygwin-noncygwin environment in windows). I try to enforce unix EOL standard across all my projects, IDEs and OSes, and spyder doesn't let me do that.

Besides changing and converting EOL style of a single file (a nice implementation of this could be seen in Notepad++), a per-project setting and conversion would be useful.

Would be awesome to go into Preferences -> Editor -> Advanced and set line endings to Unix globally.

That's right. Spyder enforces EOLs according to the operating system under which is running.

Good idea. That will help with git merges and solve simple conflicts due to line endings.

@andfoy, please work on this one.
