Hi, your problem is connected to line endings not to character encoding. Xtherion use LF as line end while Windows applications uses CR+LF. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newline But it is possible edit this files also on Windows. You just need some more intelligent plain text editor than notepad... or any other M$ software. For example multiplatform jEdit - www.jedit.org - line ending is than detected automatically or you can set it manually. L.

All the Windows applications I have do not recognise line feeds the way Xtherion does. They display Therion data files as one continuous stream of characters. I think it's probably as easy as changing the default encoding, but as I only speak one language, my knowledge is deficient in this area. I have no idea what I should change it to, ASCII would seem to be a good choice, but despite the Therion book saying it is supported, it does not appear in the drop down list in XTherion.
Is there a way of enabling cross compatibility between Therion data files and Windows plain text editors or say Visual Basic editors in Windows, set up to use English (US, UK or NZ)?
