Hi, Just thinking aloud here -- Windows has this O_BINARY thing that translates CRLF to LF when reading, and LF to CRLF when writing. It seems to me to be a useless thing. We already have our own i/o abstractions and should deal with CRLF vs LF in Scheme, I think:
The (newline) function can write CRLF The ~% format directive should DTRT read-line should DTRT And since all of our hackers have been on POSIX systems, we're used to there being no O_BINARY/O_TEXT distinction. So, what do you think about always adding O_BINARY to files that Guile opens? Regards, Andy -- http://wingolog.org/
