I10 Progress Report #9: Windows Version Validated

We have used the new DRGFilt10 to validate our DRG Assignment Engine (DAE) under windows (our reference platform is Windows 7 in order to avoid leading edge syndrome).

So we are hard at work putting together our Windows products for v33; we expect them to be available by mid-October at the latest.

This also gave us more experience with the new control file format, which we love. As part of the port to Windows, we added a feature to  DRGFilt10:  if you do not specify the "crlf" parameter, which controls the end of line (EOL) format, then DRGFilt10 does the environment-specific usual thing (Unix EOL under Unix, Windows EOL under Windows).

In other words, leaving the "crlf" parameter out of the control file means that output lines end with just line feed (LF) under Unix and carriage return (CR) + LF under Windows.

If you need to force CRLF under both environment, set crlf=1.

If you need to force LF under both environments, set crlf=0.
