DM> SMB has required lines be termined with "\r\n" since it's inception. One
DM> recent change to this is that so-called "soft carriage-returns" are now
DM> encoded as
DM> " \n". This is because Synchronet (as of v3.15) now rd-word-wraps messages
DM> when displaying via the Terminal Server (e.g. ANSI over Telnet) and we
DM> needed a distinction between auto-wrapped lines (via an editor's
DM> word-wrapping) and a so-called "hard CR" (when the author hit ENTER). See
DM> docs/WRAP.txt or ask Deuce for more details.
Thanks.
