tsconfig.json always save to CRLF on Windows environment

[stan0227]

Atom Editor now has line ending selector for selecting ending format of file.

But on Windows environment even I try to select LF format for tsconfig.json which always be saved to CRLF format.

Does it have limitation to solve the issue? Thanks a lot!

Looks like it's currently done intentionally and can't be changed (https://github.com/TypeStrong/atom-typescript/blob/master/dist/main/tsconfig/tsconfig.js#L422). The fix here would be to detect the current line endings, like we do with indent, and stringify it back the same.

Also the setting needs to be sent from the front end process to the backend process (which is the main reason it hasn't been done yet)

Using a separate file instead of tsconfig.json would be even better, especially since TS now supports comments in tsconfig.json.
