Use Source Insight as the editor to develop Unix softwares

Source Insight is my favorite editor, and I have used it for more than 10 years. But when employing it to develop Unix software, you will run into annoying line break issue, which is on windows, the newline is \r\n while in Unix it is \n only. Therefore you will see the file edited in Source Insight will display an extra ^M in Unix environment:

#include <stdio.h>^M
^M
int main(void)^M
{^M
        printf("\r\n");^M
}^M

To resolve this problem, you can refer this topic in stackoverflow:

To save a file with a specific end-of-line type in Source Insight, select File -> Save As…, then where it says “Save as type”, select the desired end-of-line type.

To set the end-of-line type for new files you create in Source Insight, select Options -> Preferences and click the Files tab. Where it says “Default file format” select the desired end-of-line type.

So you can set Unix file format as you wanted:

Another caveat you should pay attention is if you use git Windows client, by default, it will convert the newline of project from \n to \r\n directly. My solution is just disabling this auto conversion feature:

git config --global core.autocrlf false
