Comment #7 on issue 3692 by elpochod...@gmail.com: Default line-end convention fix http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3692 from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newline CR+LF: DEC TOPS-10, RT-11 and most other early non-Unix, non-IBM OSes, CP/M, MP/M, DOS (MS-DOS, PC-DOS, etc.), Atari TOS, OS/2, Microsoft Windows, Symbian OS, Palm OS LF+CR: Acorn BBC spooled text output. CR: Commodore 8-bit machines, Acorn BBC, TRS-80, Apple II family, Mac OS up to version 9 and OS-9 LF: Multics, Unix and Unix-like systems (GNU/Linux, AIX, Xenix, Mac OS X, FreeBSD, etc.), BeOS, Amiga, RISC OS, and others. However, in tty 'raw mode', CR+LF is used for output and CR is used for input. so on linux and MacOSX should be LF (I'm wrongly getting CR with Pharo1.2 and Pharo1.3 on Ubuntu). On MacOS9 should be CR.
