Homesite can (ok, could last I checked, it was 5.0 or 5.1) only save either "...?>" (not a text file) or "...?>\r\n\r\n". Whether the file matches an anal definition is not important, though. The problem is that different editors behave differently, and at least vim will append an eol to the file on saving. This leads to spurious diffs, and *that* is highly undesirable. -- If you cc me or remove the list(s) completely I'll most likely ignore your message. see http://www.eyrie.org./~eagle/faqs/questions.html
