Which format (Mac or DOS) should I use on Linux PCs/Clusters?
[I know the difference](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/28617814/difference-between-dos-format-and-mac-format) :
- DOS format uses "carriage return" (CR or
\r
) then "line feed" (LF or \n
).
- Mac format uses "carriage return" (CR or \r
)
- Unix uses "line feed" (LF or \n
)
I also know [how to select the option](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13368223/nano-2-0-6-saving-a-file-in-mac-format) :
- AltM for Mac format
- AltD for DOS format
But there is no UNIX format.
Then save the file with Enter.
