One of my users does does all his editing on Windows, copies the file to his Unix box and runs it there. What this means is that he needs Perforce to leave the EOL character alone. What happens now is that Perforce wants to change the line endings to DOS

Tell him to set his client's line end option to "unix" (I'm betting it's set to "win" or "share"). We edit unix files from Windows all the time and only have a problem when our clients are not set to "unix". (If the file was saved with DOS line endings, it won't alter them, he'll need to fix the file and resubmit it.) -Wm

Caveat: Our server is on Unix - I don't know if it will make a difference if your server is on Windows or not.
