Convert OELs and tabs to spaces

How To
1

How I can convert OELs to UNIX format in Komodo Xi?
How to convert tabs to spaces I already found.

2

If it’s multiple files you can use Find/Replace and turn on regex by enabling the * option in the Find/Replace pane, then use \t for tabs you should be able to Find/Replace them all with 4 spaces (or whatever format you might want).

Thanks, I know this way. I asked about EOLs.

Code > Clean line endings should do it.

5

Not working this way. Suddenly I found that it can be changed via Edit > File Preferences.

6

Oh you want to change the preferences? You said you wanted to convert the chars, not set a pref. Edit > Preferences > File Opening has that pref as well but thats for files Komodo hasn’t seen yet.

The one you found is the one you want for previously opened files.

7

And is the way to change EOL automaticaly? On file open for example.

8

Did you run Clean line endings after you fixed the preference? That should do it.

@MaxA I created a addon that allows you to easily switch EOL’s, It also gives a warning if the files EOL settings is diffrent then the global configuration.

The addon can be found here
