Hi,
Can somebody tell me how "hard" the CR/LF sequence is built into CP/M?
I'm asking this as I want to read a text-file line by line and need a
definite place to terminate the line.
UNIX uses a single \n, but with a two character sequence, I'm not sure
if LF is always the last character and the second last character is
always a CR which I can discard.

Regards,
