Controls the newline character convention.
#pragma mpwc_newline on | off | reset
If you enable this pragma, the compiler uses the MPW conventions for the '\n' and '\r' characters. Otherwise, the compiler uses the ANSI C/C++ conventions for these characters.
In MPW, '\n' is a Carriage Return (0x0D) and '\r' is a Line Feed (0x0A). In ANSI C/C++, they are reversed: '\n' is a Line Feed and '\r' is a Carriage Return.
If you enable this pragma, use ANSI C/C++ libraries that were compiled when this pragma was enabled. The file names of the 68K versions of these libraries include the letters NL (for example, MSL C.68K (NL_2i).Lib). The PowerPC versions of these libraries are marked with NL; for example, MSL C.PPC (NL).Lib.
If you enable this pragma and use the standard ANSI C/C++ libraries, you cannot read and write '\n' and '\r' properly. For example, printing '\n' brings you to the beginning of the current line instead of inserting a newline.
This pragma does not correspond to any panel setting. To check this setting, use __option (mpwc_newline), described in Checking Settings. The default setting is off.
