#1339: README.txt is a Unix file format
---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
Reporter: neil | Owner:
Type: bug | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone:
Component: Build System | Version: 6.6.1
Severity: minor | Keywords:
Difficulty: Unknown | Os: Windows
Testcase: | Architecture: Unknown
---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
The binary distributions ship both README and README.txt - with README.txt
clearly being intended as a help for Windows users. As a result, it would
make much more sense for README.txt to have Windows line endings as
opposed to the UNIX line endings (which it currently has)
The default .txt viewier on Windows is notepad, which doesn't like UNIX
line endings, and puts the entire file on one line, without word wrap, and
with silly characters around the place.
