To put an end to the picking of nits, you will not get two `<p>`'s under Win32 because the file has not been opened `binmode`. This means the OS will strip the `\r` line terminators for you. Also, the correct order for matching in `binmode` is `\r\n`, not the other way around. MeowChow s aamecha.s a..a\u$&owag.print	[reply] [d/l] [select]

To nitpick further doing `s///`'ing `\n` and `\r` separatly is faster using a char class. Greetz Beatnik ... Quidquid perl dictum sit, altum viditur.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

That may be true in general, but the idea is to take the CRLF sequence in Unix (\n) and the CRLF sequence in Windows (\n\r) and replace either of them with <p>. To do that, one regex is simpler than two.	[reply]

FYI when I am on Unix looking at files from DOS, the end of line sequence is \r\n, not \n\r.	[reply]

a character case won't solve that :) Greetz Beatnik ... Quidquid perl dictum sit, altum viditur.	[reply]

Come for the quick hacks, stay for the epiphanies.
