Re: [MacPerl] keeping my newlines straight

BBEdit normally transparently displays UNIX and DOS text formats, so either
this function is somehow turned off or the file has random linefeeds (UNIX
newlines) or the line breaks are LF/CR, which wouldn't make sense.

One way is to use Zap Gremlins to change them into bullets then replace all
bullets with CR's. Unless there are bullets in the text, but you can use any
character.

Without using a special variable:

print join "\n", @array;
