[PD] [textfile] CR in reality is LF

[Miller Puckette]

That is confusing... in every OS (windows, Mac, linux/unix) th file written
out has only unix-style line feeds to separate lines.  I thought it was a
better idea to maintain exactly the same file format than to vary it to be
the most "native" possible one.  Very old Windows programs sometimes got
confused by linefeed-only files, but I haven't seen this happen for at least
a decade or so.

cheers
Miller
