stop reinventing terms. it's literally standardized with the name "LF" / "line feed" in Unicode.
- wongogue 2y agoHe is not reinventing anything. Unicode also defines 0a as LF, NL and EOL. In modern software, 0a is used as NL anyway. https://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0000.pdf https://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0000.pdf

Some parts of Unicode and related standards do assign a special meaning to U+000A, but often also to U+000D for the obvious reason.
