Ever opened.cs files from the web or an email and get a bunch of ٱ's in there? (carriage return character)

Quick fix for windows users:

Rename the file from.cs to.txt

Open in wordpad (not word or notepad)

The ٱ's will be gone.

Save the file

Rename back to.cs

I open with notepad and no " ٱ"s. XD

The.cs files already in your TT directory will not need the fix. Files you get from a website, email, chat, etc often have those characters. I suspect it is from the creator of the files using a different OS but im not sure.

One example is dash's boot script.

I downloaded from Planetthinktanks in other stuff section & no ٱ's

I work and play on linux.
linux and unix use the newline caracter as a line terminator
windows uses a carriage return and a newline character as a line terminator
I think macs use just the carriage return as line terminator

Any decent text editor ( not notepad ) will understand the differences
and automatically deal with it, you'll never see the problem

No î's for Macs! So ha!

Bash windows, and you piss me off.

Bash linux, and you're DEAD. XO

:P

Linux...umm...it's...stupid.
So am I dead?

Linux > Mac
Fly's Brain > Mac
Any questions?
