in thread Native newline encoding

So you just popped up to tell me that the text I quoted from one (linked)document, doesn't appear in some other

Nope. GOTO 973180

Really? Then I guess you missed section "2.2 Characters" of "the spec": That I both linked and quoted elsewhere.

Nope, apparently you misread it. There's nothing about XML being a text format in there. Or are you claiming that binary formats can't contain text? That's ridiculous.

    I didn't misread anything. I simply quoted "the spec". Full stop.

    Or are you claiming

    I'm not "claiming" anything. I quoted "the spec". The official W3C XML specification document. Nothing more.

    So, take your puerile accusations, fetid mis-inferences, and dubious reasons for joining a long purposeless thread, back to wherever you've been hiding.

      I simply quoted "the spec"

      The first three words of the document you quoted says it's not the spec. You're blindness is growing X_X

      I quoted "the spec". The official W3C XML specification document. Nothing more.

      A complete lie. "Really? Then I guess you missed section" does not appear anywhere on the W3C site. Are you through pretending I'm talking about one thing when I'm talking about another?

      I'm not "claiming" anything.

      Then congratulations for quoting an irrelevant passage twice and for all the lovely accusations for missing it.

      take your puerile accusations

      No. I hold fast my accusation. You misread the passage you quoted if you think it mentioned anything about XML being a text format. Name calling, otoh is quite puerile.

      I shall also accuse you of not knowing the definition of puerile. No child would make such an accusation.

        The quote is in this post. And the quoted text is a live link that links directly to http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/REC-xml-20081126/#charsets

        And that is the official spec on the w3c website.

        If you are incapable of following a link; take your unmarked, belated updates and accusations of "lies" (a word you clearly do not know the meaning of), and shut the f*** up!
