如何在php中使用不同的行终止进行读取？

Question

I'm trying to read a CSV file generated by M$ Excel on linux.

The file has quoted multi-line (x0A separated) columns and a 0x0d0a line termination.

PHP on Linux uses 0x0a as line terminator, so all the line-based tools (file, fgets, fgetcsv) thinks there are record breaks in the middle of the data cells.

Short of processing the file byte by byte, can I temporarily change PHP's end of line character (PHP_EOL constant) so I can easily parse the file.

I think it can be done in perl with "$\". Is there something similar in PHP?

I realize I can parse byte by byte, but I'm looking for a cleaner approach.

If conceptDawg's suggestion of auto_detect_line_endings doesn't work, I would recommending reading in the entire file via file_get_contents() and then calling explode() to break up the file into multiple lines. You can pass whatever character you want to explode()
