[BUG?] descript.ion when converted to unix-format error.

Post by *NoMo »

Hello,

I have noticed a BUG in TC.
The folowing: when a descript.ion file is generated by TC or Acdsee the default format is DOS.
When copiing the files to a different directory all goes fine.
However I did a conversion with UltraEdit32 to UNIX format.
Now when I copied the files only the comments of the even files went to the new directory.
Also when you move your mouse over the files and the popup-info-box appears it shows also only the comments of the even files.
Converting the descript.ion files back from UNIX->DOS solved it all.

Is this a BUG??

:D Hi!
I don't think it's a bug, since UNIX doesn't use the same line-wrapping system than DOS / Win.
Under DOS /Win, you need TWO characters to get a new line, but under UNIX, you need a single one...
Hence, I suppose that your comment-file (UNIX-style) can't be read further than the first line under DOS / Win, since Windows doesn't find both required characters (#10 and #13)
Best regards,
