	Don't know about those, but SciTE I know has both an menu option for
line ending (<cr><lf>, <lf>, <cr>), and one for "convert line endings"

	I also know Windows Notepad (at least on WinXP) would have the opposite
problem: <lf> termination files were displayed as single lines (Wordpad,
OTOH, correctly parsed those).
