I agree heartily with this; the only Windows tool I use that is
actually dependent on CR is notepad, and usually that is only for a
lazy verification that CR is/isn't present

Everything I've written for dealing with Windows CR infested outputs
in *nix environments I strip all CRs as my first step, and do not put
CRs in my output; so far no complaints from end users about the
missing CRs.
