 Posted: Wed Aug 28, 2002 6:18 pm Post subject: Text editors for MS Windows... |
 |
|
Well, I THINK this is the right forum for this. I am sorry if I am posting in the wrong forums  .
Anywho...
I just learned Perl! And now I want a text editor for windows, that doesn't add ^M to the end of every line. If I had an extra box lying around I would just install gentoo on it and upload to my web server, but that isn't the case. I want to be able to upload perl scripts (.pl, .cgi, etc.) and have them run without having to open them in nano. Right now I am just running nano in SSH and pasting whats in notepad.
So I guess my question is:
What are your favorite win32 based text editors that don't add ^M at the end of each line?
Thanks in advance,
-Rain
PS - Once again I appologize if I wasted your time in any way.

You could try a port (to Win32) of emacs or vi or something similar.

| Check out ConText (http://fixedsys.com/context/). One of its many options lets you set the format of the files you save as "Unix"... |

| You could also filter any dos-formatted text files through dos2unix. It does a very good job converting them. |
