OS/X, Unix/Linux and Win all use different end-of-line delimiter, which 
regularly mess things up (e.g. I had problems when I simply copied some 
lilypond code from a mail to a text file, because the end-of-line chars were 
also copied and lilypond got confused).

Can you maybe attach the file (rather than pasting its contents into the 
mail), so that end-of-line characters are preserved...

Cheers,
Reinhold
