	Yes, thank you...what would a sed script look like to replace 
"<CR><LF>" with "\n" for about 14 header files?  I'm assuming 
there are no plans for adding the parser technology necessary to 
autoreplace <CR><LF> with "/n"; nor is there any simple way to 
make the replacement outside of sed.  Is this accurate?

	Thanks again,
