#8424: quasi-quotes have carriage returns on Windows ------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: GregWeber | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Template Haskell | Version: 7.6.3 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Type of failure: None/Unknown Difficulty: Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | ------------------------------------+------------------------------------- A Windows user rerported using Data.Text.IO.writeFile to write out quasi- quoted text. writeFile automatically translates '\r' to "\r\n", so the user ended up writing out "\r\r\n" to a file. Haskell seems to be adopting the policy or removing '\r' from Haskell land. Is there any reason why quasi-quotes should not automatically strip carriage returns? I asked this question on ghc-users and there was no response. I am willing to make this fix if it is deemed appropriate. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8424 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
