Quoting my self…

More precisely:

The line break setting (at the bottom of the window) decides which kind of line break is written to file.

In the editor (the open document) there are always LFs, even if the line breaks are set to “Legacy Mac (CR)”. However in the document on disk you’ll find CRs then.

To see what I mean:

  1. Create a document consisting only of a line break.
  2. Set the document to “Legacy Mac (CR)”.
  3. Save it to disk.
  4. Make a Hex dump of the document (File menu> Hex Dump Front Document)
  • You’ll get 0A (=LF)
  1. Make a Hex dump of the file (File menu > Hex Dump File)
  • You’ll get 0D now (=CR)
