RTFM.
"Lua opens files for parsing in text mode", i.e. line by line.
"Any kind of end-of-line sequence (carriage return, newline, carriage
return followed by newline, or newline followed by carriage return)
is converted to a simple newline."
Advantage: you can read WIndows Lua code in Linux and vice versa.
"So, it is safer to represent non-text data as a quoted literal with explicit
escape sequences for non-text characters. "
