Summary:                    Impossible to add/merge categories into new accounts
file
Description: 
After creating and opening a brand new accounts file with no categories
because of bug 656 (http://grisbi.tuxfamily.org/mantis/view.php?id=656 ), I
tried to add categories using the menus.

In the file explorer that popped up, I selected a .cgsb file located in
share/categories/fr (grabbed from CVS) and clicked ok. That resulted in a
pop up window telling me that the file was not a proper Grisbi category
file.

The category catalogs are indeed not identified as such by the windows
version of grisbi.

This comes from the direct comparison of files in src/gsb_file_others.c,
line 585 and following :

	    if ( !strncmp ( file_content,
			    "<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>\n<Grisbi_categ>",
			    36 ))

This works fine on Linux, but fails on Windows because of the end of line
characters (\n on Linux, \r\n on Windows).

--> One possible solution is to compare the file contents twice; once to
the string with UNIX line endings, and once to string with the DOS line
endings
Example:
	    if ( !strncmp ( file_content,
                            "<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>\n<Grisbi_categ>",
~                           36 ) ||
+                !strncmp ( file_content,
+                           "<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>\r\n<Grisbi_categ>",
+                           37 ))

I tried it with the categories, and it works. Therefore, no need to care
about the line endings.
