Well, if you checked it in from a Windows box, CVS would translate line endings to native, then a Windows checkout would translate back to Windows endings. So assuming you don't want to get your fingers dirty, give it *n*x line endings and check it in. CVS does understand text, you know :-). (And about the only Windows editor that barfs on *n*x line endings is Notepad.) - Gordon
