The title says it all, I have VS2005 but it doesn't let you choose between DOS and Unix file formats and I don't want to break things so...
Any suggestions?

Well, VS2005 will not be able to compile anything for you
But you can use it to develop and compile with cygwin. Be sure to dos2unix the files before sending them to the lists.

If you just need an editor, I would tell to use notepad++

Not what I was after.

Sorry ? Don't know how to help then.

I have found that Eclipse with the CDT plugin works and preserves te DOS/Unix file format.

Does it do completion?

I use it for editing and run gcc under Cygwin separately, I think trying the building withing Eclipse/CDT is yet another option to support for very little gain. With CDT it shows members, include hierarchies etc. which is the main thing I was after.
I am now looking into Doxygen since it looks like documentation on Videolan is an area I can contribute to.

You can code too

I'm not a glory hound!

Seriously, it's something that is sorely needed and will help me learn about Videolan, then there are a couple of things I've been thinking about.
Also looking at intergrating Cygwin with Eclipse/CDT to give Windows usabilty without intrroducing another build system to support.
Oh, I've also found an issue with Doxygen and graph imports...

All your help is very welcome.
