Try splitting on /\n\r/ instead. /^/ actually matches the beginning of
a string *or*, with split or in matching with /m, right after a newline
(\n), without consuming any characters (it's an assertion). So if $data
is
"Line one\n\rLine two"
then "split /^/, $data" gives
Line one\n
\rLine two
In other words, the \n\r is split and left attached to the pieces.
Splitting on /\n\r/ avoids this.
