Thank you for your clear and patient response. Lately, CR's are just pesky 
characters to be gotten rid of, when I actually notice them - I haven't had a 
Windows machine for years, and I've gotten out of the habit of looking. As to 
the CR moving the cursor, I've been programming just long enough that my first 
steps involved using a teletype - I should have remembered that a 
CarriageReturn once had an actual function, and what that was!
