Hans-Peter KüchlerSubject: SS4: primitive advertising in stylesheets
Author: Hans-Peter Küchler

Hi, how I can prevent SS from writing the unwanted comment
<!-- Stylesheet edited using Stylus Studio - (c)1998-2002 eXcelon Corp. -->
into all stylesheets? I've paid for your product and I don't want such primitive advertising! Especially because I only need to load a stylesheet without doing anything with it and select menu File|Save All and whoops, the comment is in my stylesheet!

regards, Hans-Peter Küchler

This is not new in Stylus Studio 4; it was there in previous versions.

I understand what you are saying, even if I have problems to classify that
something bothering; after all the comment is virtually invisible unless
you view the stylesheet with a text editor.
Other editing environments do the same.

Anyway, I'm forwarding your discontent to our marketing organization.

Thanks,
Minollo

That's not true:
XML-Spy has an option to disable the comment (after buying;-)
TurboXML adds the comment only after real changing the document.
XMetaL doesn't do it at all.

You will be glad to know that also thanks to you we have decided to make it
optional.
The change will be in the next 4.0 update build.

Thanks,
Minollo

As an aside to that, some other remark:

I use Stylus on some Apache open source projects, and was heavily annoyed by that comment too (and happy that it is resolved now).

Another remark on editor settings is the inability to set line endings: even when editing existing files that use unix linefeeds, stylus switches back to pc-style line endings upon saving. This behavior in combination with CVS is quite troublesome.

Could this be made a configuration option, too?

Steven.
