There are also (text-based) network protocols; almost all of them use CRLF as line breaks since time immemorial because "text is something that can be sent straight to the teletype and should be shown all right". UNIX decided to break with this tradition, others like DEC, and CP/M, and then Microsoft, decided not to which is why I put "Microsoft line-endings" in quotes: reasonably, they are just "line-endings", have always been, and then there is the "UNIX line-ending convention". |
