Strange, perhaps a bug in Tcl/Tk 8.5.3. I've only been using 8.5.6, 8.5.7, and various 8.4 versions. Try this from the terminal:

wish pd-gui.tcl

.hc

In the Terminal I get this:

The carriage returns get stripped when saved to the
file.  It is annoying for sure.

Yes, but what I mean is if this quirky behavior is easily fixable, it's still useful even though carriage returns don't get saved with the patch. Currently, <enter> is mainly used in a msg box after typing a semicolon,
and when the patch gets loaded a cr is added after the semicolon. So
if a new line would be started after the user types <enter> (instead of
after the *next* character is entered) it would look like Pd is doing
the right thing in 90% of the cases where you use a carriage return in
a msg box.

Oh, something related to cr's: it's currently difficult to click
the right spot in multi-line comments in pd-ext:

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2812603&group_id=55736&atid=478070

This isn't a problem in current version of pd-vanilla.
