Keeping endofline representation in xml fileformat dos file

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<PROP ID="script" VALUE="&apos; Init properties
Option Explicit

Dim varName1, vaName2
Dim nameOfBar
&apos; array creation of components
fnameOfBar = split(Parent.somefoobar, &quot;|&quot;)
"/>
Hi All,


I'm wokring on that kind of files'content, initially configured with ff=dos, ffs=unix,dos

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<PROP ID="script" VALUE="&apos; Init properties
Option Explicit

Dim varName1, vaName2
Dim nameOfBar
&apos; array creation of components
fnameOfBar = split(Parent.somefoobar, &quot;|&quot;)
"/>


1/ Instead of the whole content up above, I see only one line with ^M in place of endline CR LF.


2/ Copying this inline containing ^M in new buffer opened with setlocal ffs=unix, I do this substitution %s/^M/^M/g

Then I see all content in different lines.


3/ After editing the script, I would like to restitute the modified content into original file in one line : all content inline with end of line replaced by ^M. As at the origin.

But all attempts fails, even these that say to pass by changing ffs at opening time and writing time.

Is someone can give me right way to restitute the text content inline containing ^M displayed.

Thank you
NiVa
