new-buffer-translation-type: preference variable
Default value: 5
When you create a new buffer or file, Epsilon sets its
translation-type variable to this variable's value. The
translation type determines how Epsilon writes or reads a buffer.
A value of 0 (FILETYPE_BINARY) makes Epsilon do no line
translation, 1 (FILETYPE_MSDOS) makes Epsilon strip
<Return> characters when reading and insert them when writing, 2
(FILETYPE_UNIX) makes Epsilon do no line translation, but
indicates that the file contains text, 3 (FILETYPE_MAC)
makes Epsilon replace <Return> characters with <Newline> characters
when reading, and replace <Newline> characters with <Return>
characters when writing.
The default, 5 (FILETYPE_AUTO), makes Epsilon use the
usual type for this operating system: Unix files under Unix, MS-DOS
files elsewhere.
For remote files, those that use a URL syntax, Epsilon uses the
fallback-remote-translation-type variable instead. Also see the
default-translation-type variable.
