[gdal-dev] ogr2ogr ignores LINEFORMAT=LF?

[Stefan Keller]

Frank,

You're right, I meant CRLF not LF (under Linux, fo Windows). I have tried to
correct it but got another delivery error (550 5.1.1 User unknown). It
finally worked with a parameter -lco like this:

  ogr2ogr -f CSV out Bahnhoefe.shp -sql "select *,OGR_GEOM_WKT from
Bahnhoefe" -lco "LINEFORMAT=LF"

I actually thought that -dsco would serve as a defailt for all layers (-lco)
because I don't bother too much about layer names..
