Ok, I read some documentation on sed and perl. Pretty confusing and somewhat platform dependent. Thinking about it turned up the following. Let me know if you agree:
1. We never want to inadvertently change existing linebreaks. 2. In line-mode it is impossible to change linbreaks. Consequences: 2.1 In line-mode one cannot change the number of lines in a file. 2.2 If the user wants to change linebreaks, she has to use byline="false". 3. A line is always finally terminated by '\n', i.e. "\r\n\n" are two lines.
