Hello Anton,

That could be the editor. This editor I am using now (GoldED) will save 
paragraphs as one long line. If I were to reply to you with on offline reader 
like MultiMail lines would be saved as I see them on the screen, likely with 
CR/LF line endings.

I prefer when editors use one long line for a paragraph. Then readers can wrap 
those lines as appropriate for the terminal size being used by the reader 
instead of wrapping as the writer sees it since they could be different.

 Ttyl :-),
