  • FILE_ID.DIZs with bare newlines get imported without expanding to CRLF

    The SMB format does specify that lines of message text (extended descriptions for file bases) are supposed to be CRLF terminated, so this does technically violate the spec, though I don't observe any negative consequences of this (e.g. display issues).

    Still, it's possible that some tools or apps might render shut message base text incorrectly.
