Re: hello-2.1.91 and CR/LF

    Some programs, which produce output from given input

Ack.

    accept a --binary option

Ick.

    Or produce output with CR/LF always, 

Really?  That seems wrong to me for Hello (and just about any other
program).  Just running hello on a Unixish system shouldn't write a \r!

    have the testsuite use "tr -d '\015'" before the comparison.

Clearly it is possible to delete the \r's from the output in the test
scripts before the comparison, I was just hoping for something nicer.
Kind of a drag, but I guess that's the cleanest thing to do, except for
ignoring the problem :).

Thanks,
Karl
