I am now using a DetailsView that has a textarea as one of the fields and uses a LinqDataSource as its datasource. I want to allow users to type line breaks in the textarea and display th...

Given a text-string of unknown source, how does one best rewrite it to have a known lineend-convention? I usually do: lines = text.splitlines() text = '\n'.join(lines) ... but this doesn't handle "mixed" text-files of utterly confused conventions (Yes, they still exist!). Edit The oneliner of what I'm doing is of course: '\n'.join...
