    I am new to Mercator and just started learning it from few days.I just wanted to know if any one could help me in telling me the difference between <CR><LF> and <NL>.When I give either of them in the Terminator,I found no difference.

    Thanks in advance..

    <CR><LF> is what we usually find used on Windows platforms to separate lines of data.

    <LF> is what is predominantly used on Unix platforms for that purpose.

    So if you are developing maps that are to be used on other platforms, it would be useful to use <NL> in place of <CR><LF> so that your map works when ported over.
