title: newline character(s)
body: <p>Does your software handle newline characters from other systems?</p>
  
  <pre><code>Linux/BSD    linefeed         ^J    10     x0A
  Windows/IBM  return linefeed  ^M^J  13 10  x0D x0A
  old Macs     return           ^M    13     x0D
  others?
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>For reasons of insanity, I am going with using the Linux version of the newline character in my text files.  But, when I bring my text files over to say Windows, some programs do not play nicely with newline characters in my text.  How would you deal with this?</p>
