Joining

Coercing eol.auto|eol.crlf|eol.lf|eol.cr to string yields the appropriate character. This is useful for joining.

String(eol.lf) // "\n"
eol.split(text).join(eol.auto) // same as eol.auto(text)
eol.split(text).filter(line => line).join(eol.auto) // text joined after removing empty lines
eol.split(text).slice(-3).join(eol.auto) // last 3 lines joined

Matching

Detect or inspect via match

eol.match(' ') // []
eol.match('world\nwide\nweb') // ['\n','\n']

Dubbing

Mixin friendly

let lflf = eol.dub("\n\n")
lflf("...")
