It's amazing how much effort goes into dealing with the differing
line endings. It's bad luck that Unix standardized on a premature
version of ASCII (containing ASCII.NL) instead of the final form
with ASCII.CR and ASCII.LF. Of course with modern equipment retaining
the separation of functions is a bit silly (not many people using
teletypes these days :-)) but as with all standards, it is really
annoying to have two!

I must say though that Apple choosing to use CR only was simply
perverse :-)
