Aha, very nice, in my browsing around the documentation i must have missed this 
point. 

How does the application know that the file is 'text' though (i.e. when is new 
line a special character)? Or are all files assumed to be text?

And even when they are, how do different newline representations come into play 
(CR/LF/CRLF/NEL/unicode posse)?

Just curious, the main point was already answered by Dough and Andreas, many 
thanks for that.
