windows end-of-line on linux

[teto]

Hi,

I mentioned this on IRC but when saving a csv file on linux, I get CRLF endings instead of LF which messes up git diff etc.

$ vd --version
saul.pw/VisiData v2.5

To reproduce open a csv, edit a column and save the file with Ctrl+s .
cat -A toto.csv shows vstruct,,,,,$ before edition, after it shows vstruct,,,,,^M$ (notice the ^M). Is it possible to change the behavior to avoid this one way or another ?

NB: for now I run dos2unix after saving the csv.

Hi @teto, VisiData uses the csv.writer from Python stdlib, and exposes the various dialect options. In this case, Dialect.lineterminator is set by default to '\r\n', and you can set it to what you want with --csv-lineterminator=$'\n'.

thanks for the pointer.
