| In my conviction there is 4 types of files:
|
| 1) binary files
| 2) text files with exact line-endings
| 3) text files with native/LF/CRLF/CR line-endings
| 4) unicode text files similar to 3.
Isn't there just 2 types of files (binary and text)? 4 above is just a 
text file with encoding set to unicode. So I think file encoding needs 
to be another property (UTF8, ASCII, unicode etc).
