Figured it out. Apparently when I checked out the code, I indicated that git should convert the \n to \r\n(native line ending on Windows), which causes the tests to fail, as the "known-good" files were subtly changed with their line endings, which caused the (binary) comparison to fail.
Fortunately, adding a .gitattributes file fixes this issue. I'll put that up shortly, and then do a bigger PR with the github actions sometime soon, hopefully with the OSX crash fixed. -Robert Middleton On Mon, Sep 7, 2020 at 3:23 AM Thorsten Schöning <tschoen...@am-soft.de> wrote: > Guten Tag Robert Middleton, > am Sonntag, 6.
