Hi - I read your information o "Environment" and changed server settings from CR-LF to LF.
UTF-8 I left on Auto.
I should just search the forums and read before posting...
Thanks!

Hi Martin:
I am using the internal editor. When I edit a remote file, it opens fine with no CR-LF problems. But after editing and I save the file to the server, the file size increases and upon inspection using vi, there are additional ^M characters appended to the end of each line. I think the editor is OK, but when I save the file it is in binary format.
I am using 4.2.5 and did not have this issue with previous versions.
Even if I use an external editor (notepad or wordpad), the file is always saved on the server with CR-LF.
Any Suggestions?
Thanks!

Oops, I missed this one. Thank you, Martin.

And sorry for this false bug report.

Regards.

Make sure you do not have Force text transfer mode for files edited in external editor option enabled in editor preferences.

Hi,

When I edit a text file with a double-click, line endings are converted from Unix format (LF) to Windows format (CR+LF), no matter the transfer mode I use in preferences (auto or binary). I checked the downloaded file to be sure it was not because of my text editor (Notepad2).

I post this issue because there's a work around : first download the file, edit it then upload the new version. Line endings will not be converted (in extenso, don't use a double-click).

Regards
