#577 Set EditorConfig contrib-plugin to use global EOL character setting

[Zach zachery]

Hi there good people,

there is following issue (and a fix, see above) with the current implementaion of the EditorConfig contrib-plugin.
(for reference please also follow this thread: Detect file EOL)

In short: I need uniform whitespace settings project-wide and consistent EOL per file.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Set EOL mode to "AUTO" at /Settings/Editor/General Settings/Editor Settings/
2. Enable EditorConfig plugin at /Project/Properties/EditorConfig options/ to set project-wide whitespace options.
Issue: I can't specify auto eol detection here and global auto eol detection is overridden. That means whenever there's a file in my project with different EOL characters than specified (happens quite often in bigger cross-platform projects) CB messes this file up with mixed EOL.

A consequence of that is this bug: Detect file EOL

Expected output:
Option to auto-detect file EOL even when project-wide whitespace options are set by the EditorConfig plugin.

Possible solution:
Add a item to the EditorConfig EOL combobox to use global settings.
More info+tiny patch see post: Detect file EOL

How to edit this crappy link parsing??

You have to use the markdown syntax, for example: Detect file EOL

Thanks Olly, the problem is I can't seem to be able to edit the OP.
Maybe my script blocker, maybe some other thing, anyways...

Fixed in SVN, but a little more properly.
