Adance Form Processor Properties

Hi Pablo,
Under advance form properties / miscellaneous we have an option :
End of Line: CRLF or LF
What do those options mean, and when to use each?

CRLF = carriage return & Line Feed
LF= line feed

Using GPT-4
End of Line (EOL) refers to the character sequence used to indicate the end of a line of text in a file. The two most common conventions for EOL are:

CRLF (Carriage Return + Line Feed): This is used in Windows operating systems. It consists of two characters: a carriage return (\r) followed by a line feed (\n).
LF (Line Feed): This is used in Unix-like systems (including Linux and macOS). It consists of a single line feed character (\n).
In programming and text files, it’s essential to use the correct EOL sequence based on the platform you’re working with. Some programming languages and tools are sensitive to the EOL format, so using the appropriate one ensures compatibility.

For example:
Windows text files typically use CRLF (\r\n).
Unix/Linux text files use LF (\n).
Remember that choosing the right EOL format can prevent issues when sharing files across different platforms or collaborating with others.
