Details

The following files were garbled in changelist #4648 by stripping all line terminators, making the files unusable:

  • .../scenes/advanced/cats/cattext.inc
  • .../scenes/animations/life/blink4.inc
  • .../scenes/animations/life/walker.inc

Line terminators of these files were already problematic in previous versions of the file, having been CR-only.

The following files changed with #4648 should be reviewed closely as well, as they were previously CR-only, too, and at least some of them exhibit some peculiarities regarding line and/or file terminators:

  • .../scenes/animations/pentmap/pentmap.ini
  • .../scenes/animations/pentmap/pentmap.pov
  • .../scenes/animations/slinky/slnk.ini
  • .../scenes/incdemo/metals/metals.doc
  • .../scenes/incdemo/stones/stones.doc
  • .../scenes/incdemo/woods/morewood.doc
  • .../scenes/incdemo/woods/woods.doc
  • .../scenes/textures/pigments/skies/skies.doc
This task depends upon

  • Field changed: Status (New → Investigating)

fixed the three offending files from the “cats” and “life” sample scenes with change #4841.
The other files still need reviewing.

  • Field changed: Status (Investigating → Requires testing)
  • Field changed: Percent Complete (60% → 100%)

the other files were slightly bogus, too (except for pentmap.pov), having their last line terminated with CR-only (all other lines terminated with CR+LF); fixed with change #4842.

Needs to be checked in the next release, to make sure the new versions are used despite only differing in line terminators.
