Lets you specify whether and what line ending character(s) should be forced. Enabling the check box causes the selected line separator to be forced for newly formatted files. You can choose from one of the two common platform styles (Unix, Windows) to enforce a specific line terminator. Or select Platform default if you want to obey the line terminator of your platform. Choosing Preserve original keeps the style of the source files, but please note that Jalopy does not support mixed line separators. It will use the style of the first line separator found in a source file for the complete file!

When left disabled, the default behavior depends on the used Plug-in: The Ant, Console and Maven Plug-ins preserve the original line separator by default (this may be overridden via the “fileformat” attribute, the “format” command-line option, or the “fileFormat” parameter). The Eclipse 2.x and NetBeans Plug-ins preserve the original format, too. All other Plug-ins use the corresponding IDE setting (sometimes called line terminator or end-of-line characters).
