Line Break Handling Request

Currently I'm using the MacOS version of Hugs. The Macintosh platform is
undergoing a sort of evolution towards Unix, and text files may either
have traditional MacOS linebreaks (CR) or Unix linebreaks (LF). MacOS
Hugs only works with the former.
I think all platform-versions of Hugs should accept all kinds of
linebreaks:
CR (as MacOS)
LF (as Unix)
CR LF (as Windows)
...as line breaks.
If you ever get around to supporting Unicode, you should also handle
\u2028 and \u2029, but that is a separate issue.
