00:01:02 The default line termination is #\linefeed. You can either specify an external format explicitly when you open your file, or there are some special variables you can set. See section 4.5.2 of the manaul. 00:03:55 If you're in a hurry, you could try putting (setq ccl:*default-external-format* :inferred) in your ccl-init.lisp file and see if that does what you want. 00:07:35 rme: thank you. i'll have a look at that :) 00:19:29 setting it to (ccl:make-external-format :line-termination :crlf) does the trick, it seems 00:20:12 Yes, that should work. 00:21:16 http://trac.clozure.com/ccl/ticket/833 is a ticket where we argue about this. 00:30:38 rme: yep. i agree that it is a bug not to write and read crlf text files by default on Windows. oh well... :) for input, :inferred is fine i would say. for output (which is my issue) it should default to the platform standard, which is :crlf on Windows. 00:32:42 I'm not sure what the right answer is. In any case, you've got a working solution now? 00:33:24 yep, thanks. i haven't changed my init file at this point, just wrapped this code in a LET for the time being 00:33:46 I think I lean towards the position "if you want a particular external format, then specify what it is." 00:34:22 so unix people should specify LF, eh? :) 00:34:34 So, you could just say (with-open-file (f ... :external-format '(:line-termination :crlf)) ...) and off you go. 00:34:36 and get crlf if they dont :) 00:34:40 heh. maybe so. :-) 00:35:22 anyhoo, that's just the way it is atm.. :) 01:08:17 alms_ [~alms_@209-6-130-32.c3-0.bkl-ubr1.sbo-bkl.ma.cable.rcn.com] has joined #ccl 01:10:53 -!- DataLinkDroid [~DataLinkD@120.154.38.98] has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds] 01:15:50 DataLinkDroid [~DataLinkD@120.154.38.98] has joined #ccl 01:19:24 -!- DataLinkDroid [~DataLinkD@120.154.38.98] has quit [Client Quit] 01:27:39 erikc [~erikc@CPE00222d53fe78-CM00222d53fe75.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com] has joined #ccl 01:30:13 -!- dented42 [~dented42@opengroove.org] has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds] 01:37:21 dented42 [~dented42@opengroove.org] has joined #ccl 02:05:46 -!- alms_ [~alms_@209-6-130-32.c3-0.bkl-ubr1.sbo-bkl.ma.cable.rcn.com] has quit [Quit: alms_] 02:14:08 alms_ [~alms_@209-6-130-32.c3-0.bkl-ubr1.sbo-bkl.ma.cable.rcn.com] has joined #ccl 02:47:17 -!- alms_ [~alms_@209-6-130-32.c3-0.bkl-ubr1.sbo-bkl.ma.cable.rcn.com] has quit [Quit: alms_] 05:39:06 -!- erikc [~erikc@CPE00222d53fe78-CM00222d53fe75.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com] has quit [Quit: erikc] 07:22:41 -!- Blkt` [~user@82.84.166.73] has quit [Ping timeout: 255 seconds] 08:08:03 DataLinkDroid [~DataLinkD@101.175.65.1] has joined #ccl 08:45:43 Hans-Martin [~quassel@2001:4dd0:f8b3:1:1488:40cd:ef05:84a9] has joined #ccl 09:00:49 -!- Hans-Martin [~quassel@2001:4dd0:f8b3:1:1488:40cd:ef05:84a9] has quit [Remote host closed the connection] 09:39:11 -!- DataLinkDroid [~DataLinkD@101.175.65.1] has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds] 13:07:58 alms_ [~alms_@209-6-130-32.c3-0.bkl-ubr1.sbo-bkl.ma.cable.rcn.com] has joined #ccl 13:18:59 Hans-Martin [~quassel@2001:4dd0:f8b3:1:1488:40cd:ef05:84a9] has joined #ccl 13:53:04 -!- sellout- [~Adium@c-98-245-92-119.hsd1.co.comcast.net] has quit [Quit: Leaving.] 14:03:04 -!- df_ [~df@aldur.bowerham.net] has quit [Remote host closed the connection] 14:10:24 sellout- [~Adium@70.96.9.235] has joined #ccl 14:16:27 erikc [~erikc@CPE00222d53fe78-CM00222d53fe75.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com] has joined #ccl 14:25:06 Vivitron [~Vivitron@12.53.196.74] has joined #ccl 14:39:31 consolers [Jon@59.92.87.69] has joined #ccl 14:43:30 -!- consolers [Jon@59.92.87.69] has left #ccl 15:01:09 bhyde [~bhyde@c-24-61-81-138.hsd1.ma.comcast.net] has joined #ccl 15:49:00 -!- Vivitron [~Vivitron@12.53.196.74] has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds] 15:55:16 -!- bhyde [~bhyde@c-24-61-81-138.hsd1.ma.comcast.net] has quit [Quit: bhyde] 16:28:16 Vivitron [~Vivitron@pool-98-110-213-33.bstnma.fios.verizon.net] has joined #ccl 16:28:42 -!- Hans-Martin [~quassel@2001:4dd0:f8b3:1:1488:40cd:ef05:84a9] has quit [Remote host closed the connection] 16:38:52 jimmy99 [~bonsai@69.85.36.234] has joined #ccl 17:25:14 -!- jimmy99 [~bonsai@69.85.36.234] has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds] 17:26:21 sellout-1 [~Adium@70.96.9.235] has joined #ccl 17:28:10 -!- sellout- [~Adium@70.96.9.235] has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds] 17:42:07 -!- fe[nl]ix [~quassel@pdpc/supporter/professional/fenlix] has quit [Remote host closed the connection] 17:42:18 fe[nl]ix [~quassel@pdpc/supporter/professional/fenlix] has joined #ccl 17:59:50 -!- sellout-1 is now known as sellout 18:02:54 RocksHound [~rtc@108-232-158-49.lightspeed.tukrga.sbcglobal.net] has joined #ccl 18:28:07 -!- sellout [~Adium@70.96.9.235] has quit [Quit: Leaving.] 18:28:48 -!- dented42 [~dented42@opengroove.org] has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds] 18:33:39 dented42 [~dented42@opengroove.org] has joined #ccl 18:35:09 bhyde [~bhyde@50.12.146.82] has joined #ccl 18:58:54 dioxirane [~dioxirane@unaffiliated/dioxirane] has joined #ccl 19:03:08 -!- bhyde [~bhyde@50.12.146.82] has quit [Quit: bhyde] 19:45:13 -!- dioxirane [~dioxirane@unaffiliated/dioxirane] has quit [Ping timeout: 264 seconds] 20:13:20 dioxirane [~dioxirane@unaffiliated/dioxirane] has joined #ccl 21:11:04 -!- dioxirane [~dioxirane@unaffiliated/dioxirane] has left #ccl 21:16:59 -!- pjb` is now known as pjb 21:22:54 sellout- [~Adium@c-71-56-237-160.hsd1.co.comcast.net] has joined #ccl 21:28:29 jimmy99 [~bonsai@c-69-251-139-157.hsd1.md.comcast.net] has joined #ccl 22:01:35 -!- sellout- [~Adium@c-71-56-237-160.hsd1.co.comcast.net] has quit [Quit: Leaving.] 22:31:19 -!- jimmy99 [~bonsai@c-69-251-139-157.hsd1.md.comcast.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds]
