That's good to hear. And your guess might well be correct. I've seen
a lot of abc tunes damaged this way. My tune finder's search bot has
found a number of sites whose abc tunes can't be identified because
they come across as double spaced, and it's obvious that this sort of
double spacing is the explanation. So far, I haven't spent the time
it would take to undo this problem.
There was a cute bit of humor on the subject a week ago on
segfault.org. Go to http://segfault.org/ and look near the bottom,
the "Microsoft Changes Newline Character" article.
