There actually are newlines there in some ways the log is viewed. So

I'm not quite sure what you're suggesting. I had a look with emacs, and I'm
pretty sure there are no special characters in there. Perhaps I'm
misunderstanding you.
My "~/.racket/planet/300/5.1/INSTALL-LOG" on GNU/Linux contains *zero*
LF or CR characters, despite reflecting a few PLaneT packages having
been installed.
First guess: someone is getting the log text line-by-line without
newlines, and forgetting to add the newlines when sending the lines to
the log file.
If Robby means that his log contains LF and/or CR characters, maybe he's
using a different Racket version, or is on a different host platform.
