------- Comment #3 from bugzilla at digitalmars.com  2007-07-23 02:28 -------
Modern text processing software should accept the following as line
terminations:

LF (unix)
CR (mac)
CRLF (windows, DEC)

It isn't just a unix world. gnumake used to fail on CR's a few years ago, that
got fixed. gcc works on those line endings, so does all Digital Mars software.
If you are using software that doesn't recognize common line terminations, that
is a bug in that software, not the text file. Since D source code is portable
between operating systems, it cannot be required to use just one protocol.

If you need an editor that works properly, see microEmacs (downloadable from
digitalmars.com).
