End of Line Characters

Factory default: ^M (i.e. CR)

This text box is used to specify the characters that are to indicate the end of a line in a data block.

To change the current definition, delete the definition displayed in the text box and type in the new one, either as the control key character equivalent or the decimal value of the ASCII character.

For example, the default ASCII character CR can be entered by typing the characters ^ and M, representing the keys Ctrl + M which, when pressed together would generate the CR code.

Decimal values are entered as three-digit numbers immediately preceded by an underscore character. Values with only two digits must be preceded by a zero. For example, the decimal value of CR is 13, so this would be entered as _013.

Refer to the ASCII character table in the Character Sets appendix for code and decimal references.
