In depth
A closer look at LineDrop
Users who employ different platforms in their work might run into frequent issues when transferring text files between their operating systems. Such issues mainly occur since the line endings for the different platforms are terminated with different character codes.LineDrop is a useful application that was created in order to help users overcome such problems, by providing a way of easily removing duplicate line ends. These duplicates might arise because of bad FTP transfers. This kind of behavior can also occur when editing the text files and it will emphasize additional empty lines between every line.Coming as a compact and lightweight package, LineDrop will provide users with an interface that displays all the output line ends options. In order to use the utility’s features, one must simply drag the files that need to be converted, onto its interface.However, users must beware that LineDrop will overwrite the inputted files and it will corrupt any non-text files. For those who are concerned about this, LineDrop will provide an overwrite warning, that can be disabled on-request, by editing the provided configuration file.Users will be able to choose for the application to yield output line ends for Windows (CR+LF), Unix (LF) and Macintosh (CR) platforms. Duplicate line ends can be removed and processing of one line end at file end is also available. Furthermore, users will be able to drag-and-drop folders on the application and it will process all the contained files, including those from sub-folders.
