OMEdit should have a setting for the line endings (LF/CRLF/native)

[adrpo]

Currently we enforce Linux line endings (LF) on Windows too for the .mo files we generate. This should be configurable in OMEdit.

I guess we would need to change unparsing in OMC and to add this setting to the OMC API.

[sjoelund.se]

All internal strings to OMC need to be using normalized line endings (LF). The only time you "need" to change the line endings is when writing strings to a file (so writeFile taking an enumeration for text conversion, or doing this conversion in OMEdit).

Replying to sjoelund.se:

Yes, this is what I meant, that we don't have too much to change, just the unparsing (writing) to file.

Well, the unparsing you should not change, because it is used internally. Only the writing to files could change. OMEdit does not use the API at all, and uses its own routines for saving using QTextStream. I assume it can be changed to output the desired encoding (and if really necessary, adding a BOM at the top of files if one existed before).

Added line ending settings in fbf65b8/OMEdit.

Thank you for fixing this!
