Well, now that I have my dorky perl script for checking line endings, I've been checking my project folder every day, and I have never found any non-unix newlines. (But I know that my tool is working because it easily finds non-unix newlines in older project folders.)

However, I still have the problem of Project Find/Replace failing to replace, and wrong line numbers, both due to "offsets", and yes it is solved by clicking Info on the file in the Groups and Files browser and changing Line Endings from "No explicit Line Endings" to "Unix (LF)".

This may be expected behavior. Understanding exactly what all the various "Line Endings" settings in Xcode actually do is way beyond my pay grade. And although I'm not keeping accurate records, I believe that I've seen a couple of files which I have changed to "Unix (LF)" sometimes get changed back to "No explicit line endings" the next day, as has been reported by others in the list archives. Possibly this is caused by pasting in text. I sure as hell can't remember all the text I paste in every day.

I just hope somebody at Apple reads my bug report and is smart enough to figure out what is going on and fix it. Maybe someone with a PhD in Line Endings? _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
