Description Daniel Sheppard

Several editors, notably including jEdit, allow the file line ending to be
defined rather than just using the default. In multi-platform environments it
can be useful to define the line ending, particularly if discs are cross-mounted.

This option exists.  See Source > Convert Line Delimiters ...

Comment 2 Daniel Sheppard

This means that I need to remember to change the line endings every time. What
would be more convenient is if I could override the system default in the
preferences to define the policy of using the line endings of my choice.

Moving request to platform text component.
