ckanapi create line break using markdown - api

I'm creating the description of a number of resources using the python ckanapi. I'd like to create line breaks, which is easy if using the UI (two spaces followed by return key) but I can't figure out how to do it over the api.
Is there a way to start text on a new line using markdown?

line break in markdown:
<br/>

I was struggling with this as well. For me, two spaces followed by \n worked.
So: First line \nSecond line

Cannot move a text object (variable) outside a function

I am trying to first convert pdf credit card statements to text then use regex to extract dates, amounts, and vendor from the individual lines. I can extract all the lines of text as they appear on the statement but when I call the variable with the text file, it only returns the last line.
I set the directory and read-in the pdf credit card statement as "dfpdf"
I run this code ....
with plumb.open(dfpdf) as pdf:
pages = pdf.pages
for page in pdf.pages:
text = page.extract_text()
global line
for line in text.split('\n'):
print(line)
this returns all the lines in the statement which is what I want. But if I later call or try to print "line" all I get is the last line of the statement. In addition to what is probably a really simple answer, I would also love a suggestion for a really good tutorial or class on using python to convert pdfs then using regex to create pd data frames. Thanks to all of you out there who know what you're doing and take the time to help amatuers like me. Mark

Xamarin Editor line breaks using XAML

I am trying to add line breaks to a editor placeholder in Xamarin with XAML. Unfortunately I cant use \n or < br/> for new lines.
Does anyone have a idea how to work around this behavior?
I tried this and it wont work:
<Editor Placeholder="This is one line \n this is the next one."/>
Expected result:
This is one line this is the next one.
My result:
This is one line \n this is the next one.
You should be able to use
, i.e.:
<Editor Placeholder="This is one line
this is the next one."/>
The &# notation is a XML encoding for special characters. See also this article on Wikipedia.

Coda 2 & Emmet - EOL character displaying

I am using emmet with Coda 2, version 2.6.6. When I use it to create multiple lines, Coda is showing some sort of end of line character.
For instance, if I use section.container>div*4>{$}, I get the following:
At the end of the first three divs is a some sort of EOL character, and I don't know how to get rid of it. I looked through the editor preferences and did not see anything that would allow me to hide that character. I've tried it on two different macs and have the exact same results.
Is there a way to get rid of it.
I've noticed this recently in 2.5.16. it may be related to having mixed line endings.
If you go to Text > Line Endings > Convert to (whatever type of line endings you use), it should clear the symbol.

Enable show differences in line separators in a diff with Intellij IDEA 13

I'm using IDEA 13.0.1. A unit test is failing because of some line separator stuff. But when I try to compare the two results, IDEA says "Contents have differences only in line separators".
And I can't find a setting where I can say show me these differences. Is there one?
I ran into the same issue, I couldn't find a way to show the difference by clicking show differences, but if you put a break point and look at the strings, they have the line separator written out. For me one string had \n and one had \r\n. \r is also a possible line separator.
I ran into the same problem recently. I found a workaround for it, is not that pretty but did the job:
yourString.replaceAll("\n", "").replaceAll("\r", "");
The key is in what #user1633977 said.
To solve this problem, always use System.lineSeparator() to create your separators. That way they will always be the same and will be OS-independant.
(Remember that different OS can use different symbols as line separators).

Removing handling newlines in a simple text import class

I have an input file that I want to use the string SPLIT function on for each line, depending on the Type field. However, the description field sometimes has data that has new lines in it so it messes up my file reader since it uses streamreader's readline() function
Handled:
Type|Name|User|Description
Type|Name|User|Description
Unhandled:
Type|Name|User|Description line 1
Description Line 2
Type|Name|User|Description
Besides not being able to validate on 'Type' for each line and keep reading the file for when the next Type field appears, are there any ways folks can come up with to properly read this file?
My solution was to have the file maker replace newline characters in their description field with another unique character that I can later add back in. I'm still interested in solutions from the file reader's perspective though
I know I'm talking to myself a lot here, but I found another solution, which is to remove remove line feeds, since the output file creator wrote out carriage returns for each line.
You could easily set a conditional statement to see if the Split array contains more than one element, which would indicate that it's a line you want to parse.
