Yes, it most certainly is possible. Translation only occurs on '\r\n'. Hello\r\r\n. Will end up as: Hello\r\n after being read. The translation doesn't back up and reprocess:. Hello\r\n into Hello\n The '\n' conversion to '\r\n' on output is transparent, and putting '\r\n' in the output stream will end up with '\r\r\n' in the file. -- What books will be in the Trump Presidential Library? _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
