Summary: [5.9.4] Export to TXT does not include CR/LF

Initial Comment:
The output from an "Export to TXT" of any character
sheet (blank or populated) does not include appropriate
CR/LF characters.  The output is all on one line, and
completely unreadable. 

The same character sheet in 5.9.3 produces the expected
output.

Tried using the template from 5.9.3 instead, but still
no joy.

I beleive the opposite is what has happened, it's not that it was removed from 
5.8 but it was just recently added to the 5.9.x line.

Try outputing to html and selecting the plain text OS, that should give you the 
same result.

The TXT export is a new feature in the 5.9.x stream.  I
wrote the code originally but haven't touched it since 5.9.0
(hence me thinking it was a change in the Output Sheet since
it was OK in 5.9.3 and not in 5.9.4).  I'll look into it
(but with my TM hat on I'm re-organising this whole project,
so I'm not sure I'll get to it fast). - K

I just fired up 5.8.1rc2 to test that, but the option for
TXT export is not there.  So much for that idea.  Has that
been removed from the tree completely, or just in the stable
releases?

If the same OS works in 5.9.3 but (the sheet from the 5.9.3 releae) does not 
work in 5.9.4 then it is not the sheet but something in the code. I've noticed this 
problem as well.

Justed tested this, 5.9.3 renders the sheet from 5.9.3 and 5.9.4 with no 
problems. 5.9.4 renders the sheet from 5.9.3 and 5.9.4 without returns, this is a 
code problem.

:-)  That makes MUCH more sense!

I just tried copying
outputsheets/d20/fantasy/text/csheet_plain.TXT from 5.9.3
and using it in 5.9.4 and get the same results... Garbled
with no CR/LF.  In fact, the diff between the two only shows
a handful of changes:

diff csheet_plain.TXT.593 csheet_plain.TXT.594

OS in this case means Output Sheet, not Operating System.

I see the behavior in both GNU/Linux (Fedora Core 4) and in
Windows 2000.  Both using J2SE/JRE 5.0 Update 6, so I don't
think that it's an OS problem.

I have not yet tried the new RC, but will do that soon.

Hmm, if it was working in 5.9.3 that indicates it might be
an OS problem - K
