[Qgis-user] Add Delimited Text Layer with Mac EOL

[Aman Verma]

Hi everybody,

I'm new to this list, so please forgive me if this isn't the right place to post this.

I have successfully used the "Add Delimited Text Layer" in QGIS 1.0.2 and QGIS 1.5. However, the plugin does not appear to recognize Mac end-of-line characters, (\r). It does appear to work with UNIX or Windows style line endings. 

For an example, this file, encoded with Mac end-of-line characters, cannot be imported.

If the end-of-line characters are converted to UNIX or Windows, then everything works.

Perhaps some would disagree, but I think that adding support for Mac end-of-line characters would be a simple and welcome addition to this excellent plugin. 

To go even further, it would be nice to be able to input the character(s) to be interpreted as the EOL character(s).
