Before the big field rewrite a couple versions back, any Vertical Tab ("VT", ASCII 11) characters in a field just rendered as a non-printable character.

But after the big field rewrite, VTs are now used as a way to provide return-like appearance within a field table, so now VTs have more or less the same visual appearance as CR.

IIRC this was explained in the Release Notes for the version this change was introduced in, but despite my best effort to alert RunRev most of the details describing the new field behaviors are not in the current documentation set.

So in short: Anyone here know how to turn off the rendering of VTs as returns so I can see only true ASCII 10s as the line breaks, like I've enjoyed for the last 25 years?

TIA -
