In the report, under the layout rule (section 9.3), "The characters newline, return, linefeed, and formfeed, all start a new line." (Which four characters are those? from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linefeed , I'm guessing "LF: Line Feed, U+000A", "CR: Carriage Return, U+000D", "FF: Form Feed, U+000C", and what's the fourth one? Newline usually refers to '\n', which is LF, but linefeed has a direct name correspondence to that also!)
The H98 lexical syntax defines newline as newline -> return linefeed | return | linefeed | formfeed It could, I suppose, also refer to the Unicode character U+2028 LINE SEPARATOR, but then probably U+2029 PARAGRAPH SEPARATOR ought to be included as well. There are, BTW, Unicode guidelines for newline usage in section 5.8 of the Unicode 5.0 online edition. -- Antti-Juhani Kaijanaho, Jyväskylä http://antti-juhani.kaijanaho.fi/newblog/
