FWIW The interpretation of CR and LF is different between Macs and PCs.
On a PC, a CR-LF combination is necessary to end a line. The CR only brings
the "cursor" to the beginning of the current line, and the LF advances to
the next line. As I understand, on a Mac, a CR performs both functions. And,
to add to the confusion, on Unix/Linux et al, a LF is a "line delimiter" so
it is considered the equivalent of the PC's CF-LF.
Not sure how Finale would deal with all these differences.
Again, I'm with Jari on this. I don't understand the desire for *optional* line breaks, when it's so easy to change from one to the other (duplicate one and turn it into the other). Seems like a awful amount of extra programming work for a cumbersome, non-intuitive, non-user friendly feature. ("I *hit* return, dammit, why doesn't the line break show up on screen???")
