bug...@rt...

No we don't. The tarball should not create it. If you have one
it will be a leftover from a previous install.

You mean you are creating the file on a UNIX box, and transfering

Rather than adding a option 2, I would preer the user to specify
the line ending characters. Maybe we change the pretty option

option to do that.
