Compare directories and linefeed

Post by SelfMan »

If the "compare directory" (CTRL+F10) [x] Content is checked, I would appretiate the option to ignore linefeed differences - LF vs CRLF vs CR.

Why this?
Often you have to compare content downloaded from FTP against other directories. As the *nix platform uses LF and windows CRLF, the comparison fails even that the files are so to say identical. This is ment for text based files like php, html, plain text etc.
