Subject: Acorn newline sequence

Of course, back then there was little need (and often not much possibility) 
for concern about being compatible with other systems. Can a native Beeb
read CP/M discs? Can '80s home computers understand each others tapes? Was
interoperability even a concern for many back then?

The only oddity is the newline in the RISC OS command line is not the same
as in text files, as a simple *Spool will demonstrate.


Best wishes,

Rick.
