 Replying to [ticket:606 hamish]:
 > Hi,
 >
 > in wingrass gis.m output the leading newlines seem to be broken. When
 you run a command the first couple of letters seem to be hidden. When you
 resize the Output window by dragging on the corner (or if you run another
 command) the first missing letter appears next to the scissors icon, and
 the second missing letter appears at the start of the next line.

 places (e.g. line 231) which needs to be "\r\n" on wingrass.

 tested with WinGRASS-6.4.SVN-r42833-1-Setup.exe in a WinVista32-box.

 it's still valid.
