Wildly OT, but: The domain name is a bit funny, when I read "eol" my brain jumps to "end of life". ;-)

  for a computer guy, "end of line", surely?
  • npsomaratna 3y ago
    CRLF
    • comboy 3y ago
      LF
      • zabzonk 3y ago
        CR (pre OS X)
        • hoosieree 3y ago
          Or the rare LRCF.

    As a software developer I definitely run into “end-of-life” a lot more than “end of line.”
    • zabzonk 3y ago
      well, if you have a full-sized keyboard, you will see the (goto) end (of line) key peering up at you all the time. but i must admit, i hardly ever use it.

        a) the key just says "end", not "eol" b) the key itself I use rarely, but as an emacs user I do hit Ctrl-e often, which is the equivalent.

    I'm not sure I've ever seen it used like that. Either "\n" or LF/CRLF. But I haven't paid very close attention. ;-)

  Morbid, but, encyclopedias like this may be the only reminders we have of life before the great extinction event we're living in at the moment.
