I bet you're right.  Unix stores LF to indicate new line, whereas Windows
stores CR LF.

I write all my host software on top of a portability layer.  As part of
that, the text file reading routines try to be tolerant of both methods.
All my top level programs can therefore read either file type, but they
produce the file type native to whatever system they are running on (built
for).

My COPYA program copies ASCII files while allowing a few operations on them
(converting tabs to spaces with arbitrary tab stops, etc).  Among other
things, the Windows version will automatically write the output file in CR
LF format.  The COPYA program is included in the "PIC development tools"
download at http://www.embedinc.com/pic/dload.htm.
