I cannot overemphasize how important this is, nor how easy it is to
accidently leave a CR text file instead of a CRLF text file for Windows to
use.

DOS/Windows seems to do the most amazing things when given a CR text file
- why, yesterday I accidently used a Unix-style text file as a logon
script on a Win95 machine, and last night Venus didn't appear in the
correct position in the night sky!  Methinks it's about time the USDOJ
start milking Microsoft for money in fines - putting Venus back is going
to cost a fortune.
