TLDR Unix systems (Linux and Mac) default to the LF (line feed) character for line breaks. Windows on the other hand is "special" and defaults to CR/LF (carriage return AND line feed) This is typically due to a difference in line endings.

Voila, the file you are editing now has the correct line breaks.via the TL;DR App
