CRLF was eventually adopted as the standard line ending for Network traffic, a decision which, in retrospect, is generally considered to be a mistake. However, this usage continued in DOS and Microsoft Windows , so it will likely remain into the foreseeable future. In s, a line feed is interpreted as an instruction having the same effect on a Computer Terminal that CR-LF has on a printer. It was thought unnecessary to send printer sequences to Computer Display s. The C Programming Language , with origins in Unix, reflects this usage: in C, ''' '''' is the escape sequence for ''newline''.Apple Computer also simplified the CR-LF pair in their operating systems, choosing CR without LF. Apple's operating systems continued to use carriage return as a line ending until Mac OS X , which is partly based on Unix. SEE ALSO REFERENCES |
