Is there a way to determine Newline (@CR, @LF, or @CRLF) from FileReadLine?  I have a script that reads a file via FileReadLine, and writes out another file via FileWriteLine.  I want to preserve the Newline character from the original file in the new file.

Opt("MustDeclareVars", 1)   ;0 = no, 1 = require pre-declare

#include <File.au3>
#include <Array.au3>

Local $gInPath = $CmdLine[1]
Local $NumberOfLines = $CmdLine[2]
Local $gInDrive, $gInDir, $gInFName, $gInExt, $gOutPath
Local $gMsgBoxTitle = "Error in " & @ScriptName
Local $InLine
Local $LineCount
Local $oFileIn
Local $oFileOut
Local $FileStringAppend

If FileExists($gInPath) Then
Else
    MsgBox(4096, $gMsgBoxTitle, "This file does not exist" & @CRLF & $gInPath)
    Exit
EndIf

_PathSplit($gInPath, $gInDrive, $gInDir, $gInFName, $gInExt)

If $NumberOfLines >= 1000000 Then
    $FileStringAppend = $NumberOfLines / 1000000 & "M"
ElseIf $NumberOfLines >= 1000 Then
    $FileStringAppend = $NumberOfLines / 1000 & "K"
Else
    $FileStringAppend = $NumberOfLines
EndIf

$gOutPath = _PathMake($gInDrive, $gInDir, $gInFName & "_" & $FileStringAppend, $gInExt)
If FileExists($gOutPath) Then
    MsgBox(4096, $gMsgBoxTitle, "File already exists" & @CRLF & $gOutPath)
    Exit
EndIf

$oFileIn = FileOpen($gInPath, 0)
$oFileOut = FileOpen($gOutPath, 1)

; Check if file opened for reading OK
If $oFileIn = -1 Then
    MsgBox(4096, $gMsgBoxTitle, "Unable to open file for read" & @CRLF & $gInPath)
    Exit
EndIf

; Check if file opened for writing OK
If $oFileOut = -1 Then
    MsgBox(4096, $gMsgBoxTitle, "Unable to open file for write." & @CRLF & $gOutPath)
    Exit
EndIf

; Read in lines of text until the EOF is reached
$LineCount = 0
While 1
    $InLine = FileReadLine($oFileIn)
    $LineCount += 1
    If @error = -1 Then ExitLoop
    If $LineCount > $NumberOfLines Then ExitLoop
    FileWriteLine($oFileOut, $InLine & @CRLF)
WEnd

FileClose($oFileIn)
FileClose($oFileOut)

    FileWriteLine($oFileOut, $InLine & @CRLF)
WEnd

FileClos

from the helpfile:

 

Remarks

Returns the text of the line read, any newline characters ( Chr(10) or @LF ) at the end of a line read in are automatically stripped.

 So, no.  You'll have to use fileread and break it up yourself.

You can always use:

StringRegExp

before you read by line, by just reading the whole text using :

FileOpen
;and
FileRead

 and find which the file is using, then add that to each new line when using:

FileWriteLine

This will  copy the actual line termination of every line, whatever it uses (LF, CR, CRLF or none if last line) provided your input file has no more than 16777216 lines.

After reading the comments, here's what I came up with. I invite any critiques or recommendations to improve or simplify.

 

Opt("MustDeclareVars", 1)   ;0 = no, 1 = require pre-declare

#include <File.au3>
#include <Array.au3>

Local $gInPath = $CmdLine[1]
Local $NumberOfLines = $CmdLine[2]
Local $gInDrive, $gInDir, $gInFName, $gInExt, $gOutPath
Local $gMsgBoxTitle = "Error in " & @ScriptName
Local $InLine
Local $LineCount
Local $oFileIn
Local $oFileOut
Local $FileStringAppend
Local Const $CHAR_READ_BLOCK = 100
Local $CharsRead = 0
Local $CrFound = 0
Local $LfFound = 0
Local $Newline
Local $InBlock

If FileExists($gInPath) Then
Else
    MsgBox(4096, $gMsgBoxTitle, "This file does not exist" & @CRLF & $gInPath)
    Exit
EndIf

_PathSplit($gInPath, $gInDrive, $gInDir, $gInFName, $gInExt)

If $NumberOfLines >= 1000000 Then
    $FileStringAppend = $NumberOfLines / 1000000 & "M"
ElseIf $NumberOfLines >= 1000 Then
    $FileStringAppend = $NumberOfLines / 1000 & "K"
Else
    $FileStringAppend = $NumberOfLines
EndIf

$gOutPath = _PathMake($gInDrive, $gInDir, $gInFName & "_" & $FileStringAppend, $gInExt)
If FileExists($gOutPath) Then
    MsgBox(4096, $gMsgBoxTitle, "File already exists" & @CRLF & $gOutPath)
    Exit
EndIf

$oFileIn = FileOpen($gInPath, 0)
$oFileOut = FileOpen($gOutPath, 1)

; Check if file opened for reading OK
If $oFileIn = -1 Then
    MsgBox(4096, $gMsgBoxTitle, "Unable to open file for read" & @CRLF & $gInPath)
    Exit
EndIf

; Check if file opened for writing OK
If $oFileOut = -1 Then
    MsgBox(4096, $gMsgBoxTitle, "Unable to open file for write." & @CRLF & $gOutPath)
    Exit
EndIf

While $CrFound = 0 And $LfFound = 0
    $CharsRead += $CHAR_READ_BLOCK
    $InBlock = FileRead($oFileIn, $CharsRead)
    If StringRight($InBlock, 1) = @CR Then
        $InBlock = $InBlock & FileRead($oFileIn, $CharsRead)
    EndIf

    $CrFound = StringInStr($InBlock, @CR)
    $LfFound = StringInStr($InBlock, @LF)

    If $CrFound > 0 And $LfFound > 0 Then
        $Newline = @CRLF
    ElseIf $CrFound > 0 Then
        $Newline = @CR
    Else
        $Newline = @LF
    EndIf
WEnd

; Read first line of text
$InLine = FileReadLine($oFileIn, 1)
$LineCount = 1
FileWriteLine($oFileOut, $InLine & $Newline)

; Read in lines of text until the EOF is reached
While 1
    $InLine = FileReadLine($oFileIn)
    $LineCount += 1
    If @error = -1 Then ExitLoop
    If $LineCount > $NumberOfLines Then ExitLoop
    FileWriteLine($oFileOut, $InLine & $Newline)
WEnd

FileClose($oFileIn)
FileClose($oFileOut)
