'\n' can be two characters outside of POSIX, see "man fopen".

It would feel good to use CRLF to bash Windows once again. Isn't
ridiculous and painful to have two characters for only one thing?
Unfortunately CRLF pre-dates Windows by decades. You can argue it is
older and more standard than LF. For instance many internet protocols
use it.
Now I wonder how come a third convention emerged. Just to "think different"?
