vi editor related question

[Lucas Holt]

Consider using a different editor in windows like UltraEdit.  It can 
save in "unix" format and supports syntax hi-lighting.  Better yet, 
remove windows from the equation. :)

There are a lot of nice text editors for UNIX like OSes including  
xemacs, gedit (gnome), kate (kde), etc.

I do understand the temptation to use a specific editor though.  For 
large class assignments (C++), I often work on my laptop using xcode 
(apple).  Fortunately, Apple switched to the winning team (UNIX) for 
line termination with OSX.
