I'm all for using \n, but being on Windows, I sometimes need to explicitly produce native text files. In my today's use case I have coded some VS 2005 solution file transformations in Factor, after which Git showed the entire file as changed due to EOL conversion that implicitly took place in `change-file-lines`. Explicit setting would satisfy me, although, now that I'm thinking about it, the `change-file-lines` could have preserved the line endings it found in the file, because it has read it in the first place. But that's a pretty high-level feature to ask, which can't happen until a lower-level mechanism is in place.

maybe, there are some historical differences that make newlines funny businessI'd love to just use '\n' everywhere.,On Tue, Feb 7, 2017 at 9:24 AM, Alexander Ilin <ajs...@yandex.ru> wrote:Helllo, John!
Suggestion taken, thank you!
Why isn't there a symbol like `eol`, so it would be possible to do something like
```
[ "\r\n" eol [ ... ] with-variable ] with-file-writer
```
Or even like
```
[ crlf [ ... ] with-eol ] with-file-writer
```
Interested in a PR?
