Description Richard Atkins

Eclipse 2.1.2 on Windows does not presently allow me to set the default line 
ending style - only to explicitly change the style from windows (the default) 
to unix or classic mac (through the Source > "Convert Line Delimiters To" 
submenu). This is no good, as it requires all developers on my team to remember 
to reset the line endings to unix (so that the files can be shared with other, 
more enlightened teams).

Please add an option to the Workbench editor to set the default line delimiter, 
so that new files and changes to old files will use this default.
