Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gedit
Ubuntu hardy heron alpha 5
I've noticed that text files written in windows notepad and gedit files aren't
compatible due to their different default encodings.
By default, Windows uses ANSI coding.
I would love to have a graphical way to save a text in gedit that can be easily
read in Windows Notepad.
I suggest a Character Coding option named either "ANSI" or "Windows"
when users go to menu File -> Save as
P.S. I know this can be done using unix2dos or by using replace to change \n to
\r\n, but I'm asking this for the sake of easier desktop use :)
P.P.S. This could even be added as a plugin.
