Notpad has an odd relationship to line-feeds and carriage returns -- at
least in my experience... If I copy something from notepad to paste into
an html textarea, then the pasted text contains all sorts of hard
returns where it shouldn't. It's similarly unable to understand the
carriage returns inserted into documents on Macs, so when you open those
you get one big mass of text with no returns at all. I was really
frustrated when I commented to Sean Corfield that a readme for something
he distributed was all horqued up, only to have someone else point out
to me that Wordpad would read it properly.
