This is related to the fact that on *nix the default end of line character is \n, and on windows, it's \r\n (note that this is not Ruby specific, but platform specific - Ruby is just following along).
There's a utility on unixes called unix2dos which you can use to substitute all \n characters to \r\n, or if you need to stay in Ruby- land, use gsub with something like gsub!(/\n/,"\r\n").
