Hello all,
Sorry about the screen clipping but I thought I'd better show you what I'm seeing.
I was wondering why some methods now in 3.9a have an unprintable character down the left column.
This doesn't appear in all methods just some. Do they have some significance that I'm missing? Is this a bug?
Thanks,
Ron Teitelbaum
I looked at the character and it appears to be a line feed. Ascii 10.
I'm guessing this is a bug?

It's a minor bug, and it's only visible to you now because someone recently added an enhancement to make the unprintable characters visible, which is a good thing.
All you are seeing is some <cr><lf> sequences that crept into the source via some methods that no doubt were filed in from a change set file with <cr><lf> terminators (maybe it came from a Windows machine or got the way due to some zip program trying to be helpful).
The source should be cleaned up, and it's probably worth entering the issue on Mantis to keep track of it.

This happens when displaying any linefeed. Is this the behavior we want for linefeeds, or should we display \n, \r, and \r\n the same way?
