### About This Project

Fix-LE.exe - Remove extraneous 0x0d (carriage return) bytes from a
Microsoft "Unicode" (UTF16-LE) file.

When Microsoft Windows "Unicode" files are submitted into Perforce with
a file type of "text" and the files are subsequently sync-ed to your
workspace (and your client workspace "LineEnd" setting is "local" or
"win"), Perforce line ending translation will replace 0x0a (line feed)
with 0x0d0a. This corrupts the files because the correct line ending
byte sequence 0x0d00 0x0a00 becomes 0x0d00 0x0d0a 0x00. This program
removes those extra 0x0d bytes.

To use:

`  p4 sync `<problem-file>\
`  p4 edit -tutf16 `<problem-file>\
`  fix-le `<problem-file>` `<fixed-file>\
`  copy /y `<fixed-file>` `<problem-file>\
`  p4 submit`

To build Fix-LE.exe:

`  Using Microsoft .NET Framework SDK v2.0 Commmand Prompt:`\
`     csc Fix-LE.cs [/keyfile:`<key-file>`]`
