Agreed.

Also, I was thinking about standard text files created with Windows or DOS. Text files from UNIX have a single character as end-of-line (Whoever was the genius who required two characters? Where did he learn computer science? And where did he forget?)

I think some programs in DOS and Windows can be configured to use a single character, too.
