The documentation on the source code (https://www.fourmilab.ch/webtools/qprint/#Download) says (p.4, #8) "Procedure output line break outputs the standard RFC 822 line break sequence of carriage-return, line-feed and resets the current output line length to zero."
That's good for multi-line output, but not good for translating a single non-ascii email address. Perhaps an option might be provided for single-line output on *nix systems, to suppress the CR character. The man page says nothing about RFC 822 or about the CR inclusion ... And, just to be clear, my 'qprint' is downloaded from the Ubuntu repository. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2045467 Title: qprint emits dos-style \r \n Status in linux package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: $ echo r.fässlin...@somewhere.com | qprint -e | od -c 0000000 r . f = C 3 = A 4 s s l i n g e 0000020 r @ s o m e w h e r e . c o m \r 0000040 \n 0000041 The "\r" confuses any addition of prefix "<=?UTF-8?Q?" and suffix "=>" when creating a quoted-printable email encoding, so that the suffix appears at the start of the string.
