I have been driven mad for the last week or so by the silly slanty quote marks that OpenOffice insists on using instead of the normal ones. It is especially annoying when adding code snippets to presentations!

Hope this saves someone else the annoyances I had.

LornaJane about Vim Macro: cleaning up line endings Wed, 02.07.2008 13:16 Geoff: For line-endings the SVN property is really useful,
but for more complex requirements, like the ones Ken mention
ed, a hook is more functional I think. I must admit to usua
lly specifying whitespace and line endings in coding standar
ds and then shouting at people that do it wrong … it [...]
Geoff about Vim Macro: cleaning up line endings Wed, 02.07.2008 12:57 Have you tried using the svn:eol-style property? This seems
