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.

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.
