It depends on the compiler. Most of the time the compilers ignore that sort of thing now. If you run into trouble though you can add a build step to your windows machine to convert the files. -----Original Message----- From: programmingblind-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:programmingblind-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Alex Midence Sent: Monday, December 27, 2010 3:18 PM To: programmingblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Vinux from Debian 5.0.7? Haven't coded in windows in over a month. I've been using emacspeak. I love it. Especially dig the way the voice changes depending on what it's reading. Comments, functions, that sort of thing. All read differently in c++. Anyone know what would happen if I wrote a source file in Linux, stuck it in my shared folder between it and windows and then compiled it in windows? Would the line feeds and the like break the code? I understand Linux treats them differently. Alex M On 12/27/10, Alex Midence <alex.midence@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Yeah, it was rough.
