[Firebird-devel] isql\show.e spoiled

[Claudio V. C. <cv...@us...>]

Hello. This is how show.e looks in my computer:

/*

 *	PROGRAM:	Interactive SQL utility

 *	MODULE:		show.e

 *	DESCRIPTION:	Display routines

 *

 * The contents of this file are subject to the Interbase Public

Nice formatting, eh? Thanks to the extra CR that the file has ON EVERY LINE.
Here's another example, the whole file is formatted the same way:

prev_option = -1;

prev_user [0] = '\0';

priv_string [0] = '\0';

col_string[0] = '\0';

with_option [0] = '\0';

priv_flags = 0;

prev_field_null = -1;

prev_field [0] = '\0';


I will repeat only a second time for anybody interested:
I put inside www.cvalde.com/utilities
a file called utilities.zip
I posted brief instructions to make ssh work with WinCvs in a previous
email. I explained how to generate the ssh key. The zip file contains ssh
and the Win32 native utilities I use to build FB currently. If you really
love the cygwin crap or need it for some valid reason or are using any
utility that insists on behaving with UNIX conventions on Windows, please
make sure your commits to the CVS tree are correct. Native Win32's WinCVS
will take care of CRs because it knows Windows uses CRLF. A rogue tool that
only knows about LF in the wrong platform will not strip CR. Plain and
simple. I'm not sure if *nix tools skip CR or show it as a control
character, but Windows editors try to fix it by adding a LF to create a
"newline".

Claudio, before you get too excited... This one slipped in _before_ you and
Mike took pity on me and sorted out my CVS/SSH problem.

Not too excited myself. MSVC got too excited, added blank lines and made
invalid my breakpoints.
:-)
Maybe the tool could ask what one wants to know or allow a parameter to set
in the configuration... maybe MS has a hidden and undocumented registry
entry for MSVC. :-(

Apologies if I caused you to feel beaten... really I got the file recently
so I thought we were under a new CR attack <g>, but I was out of sync,
sorry.

Now, could you have pity on me and recommend a good CR stripper, please? I
want to see what happens. MSVC itself handles expressions and control
characters, but since it insists on fixing the file when loading it, before
I can delete the lone CRs...

Not good, but the attached one works.
