I did assume the average member on this list does. Here is the
explanation: CR/LF means "carriage return / line feed" and are the two
actions that comprise a new line instruction to any editor. Taken from
manual typewriters (thus "carriage"). Imagine the carriage just being
returned without a line feed: you are still in the same line but at
the beginning of it (where you have already written). That's
why you need a second instruction that forwards the paper to the next
line.
