[chirp_devel] Files with CRLF vs. LF vs. CR?

[Tyler Tidman]

I finally had some quiet time this weekend and was attempting to work on
issue #1995 when I realized that I don't really know what the coding
policy is regarding line terminators.

The http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/DevelopersProcess
page specifically requests that changing whitespace and other stuff not
be done unless it is within the scope of the issue being fixed--a
perfectly reasonable request.

However, I noticed that most of the files under stock_configs seem to
have CRLF line terminators while some of them have LF line terminators.
 Which one is preferred?  I would prefer LF as this is what all the
Python source files seem to use.

As I am about to reorder pretty much all 61 lines of the file
stock_configs/Marine\ VHF\ Channels.csv, I figured I might as well ask
here first before finishing up the patch.  I feel that fixing the line
terminators here for just this one file is probably acceptable in this
instance.

Once I know for sure, I shall be raising another
bug/ticket/issue/whatever to give all the rest of the stock_configs
files the same line terminators.

Thanks and 73,
