I’ve tried every combination of cr, lf, and crlf, but whenever I assemble into 
a file, I get something that neither the OSX terminal or vim recognizes as 
having lf in it

I build a set of commands in mrgCmds, appending cr as I go, but I get a bunch 
of ^M in the otherwise uninterrupted stream with vi and less, while cat shows 
me the last line (presumably, as it keeps writing it over.

The code in question is

put "outFil=open(theOutPdf, 'wb')" & cr after mrgCmds

put "outFil.write(theOutPdf)" & cr after mrgCmds

put "quit" & cr after mrgCmds

replace cr with crlf in mrgCmds

open file fldr & "/theCmds.py" for write

write mrgCmds to file fldr & "/theCmds.py"

close file fldr & "/theCmds.py"


please, someone help, before the termcap flashbacks tern me into a quivering 
blob of fear!
