Summary: IDLE needs to allow control of eol seq

Initial Comment:
IDLE tries to respect the end of line sequence of the 
platform it is running on. However, sometimes this 
isn't the correct behavior.

I want to use IDLE on Windows, but access files on a 
Samba share. These files are in turn used by Apache, 
and it's very picky about end-of-line. If the file has 
CR-LF, it won't execute it.

Any time I change a file with IDLE, it resets all the 
end of line sequences. This also fouls up the ability 
to diff files, or do CVS merges, because it's a global 
change.

IDLE should either (1) allow an explicit setting for 
EOL sequence, or (2) figure out what it is for a 
specific file and then write it out the same way.
