Now that we live in the days of OS X... there's almost no need to
ever see "Mac Linebreaks" again... The only folks that will run into
problems would be folks still running an ancient version of classic
Mac OS and aren't using a decent text editor... something like
SimpleText from System 7 may have trouble with UNIX line breaks
(don't quote me on that) but even back in the System 7 days Macs
knew how to play nice with unix file servers and such...
I for one, set Unix line breaks as my default.
So do I, but Classic Mac linebreaks (\015 aka CR) DO show up in
exports to text files from Filemaker Pro, and when Excel saves as text
on OS X (YMMV with newest versions of those apps).
