As a data analyst, sometimes you’ll be called in to help figure out why a text file written on one platform (say Linux web server) won’t read into an application on another platform (say Windows PC app).
Often, the root cause is different character codes used to terminate lines in the text file.

Some applications have the extra functionality to handle multiple codes, others do not.

In those cases, you will need to help identify and fix the problem.

What: A free, simple utility for identifying and changing end-of-line characters in text files.

Levelset: Windows PC files end lines with CR+LF (carriage return + line feed). Linux, Unix, and the newer MAC end lines with just LF. The older MacOS ended lines with CR. Text editors and applications in the various operating systems often cannot read files written in another OS until you change the end of line characters.

Features

  • Find end-of-line characters (CRLF, LF, or CR)
  • Fix end-of-line characters
