When a file prepared under windows is loaded in epispin the parser balks about ^M being present in the file.

^m (Cntl-M) is the equivalent for the Carriage Return character.
This character is used under DOS/Windows but not under Linux.
Modern applications automatically take care of that.

^M
// TEMPORARY DEFINITIONS HERE;^M
^M

define configMAX_TASK_NAME_LEN 8 // somewhere^M

^M
// from Demo/AVR_ATMega323_WinnAVR/FreeRTOSConfig.h^M
// note: different for various architectures!^M
// #define configMAX_PRIORITIES (( unsigned portBASE_TYPE) 4)^M

define configMAX_PRIORITIES 4 // nazien!!^M

^M

Note that you can use <verbatim>…</verbatim> for code blocks. Sander also posted a related issue about CR characters at YellowGrass/223.

I can not get this issue reproduced. I also think this is not an EpiSpin issue, but more of an Eclipse issue.
