Agreed. However, that's not what we currently do since if the client only sends \n we will strip out the line ending. This is a bug on our side that we should fix. You can probably agrue that FileZilla is doing the right thing as \r is probably not to be regarded as the "internal character representation" (as described in the RFC) on Windows. Anyways, we should add a bunch of tests for this and fix. /niklas
