Sorry, I'm not sure I understand what you are saying about editors and hiding or not hiding control characters. There are no hidden control characters in the example code I posted.

The code I proposed is very explicit about using CRLF terminators. The here-doc fed to create_crlf_ref() contains only the normal LF, but then create_crlf_ref() explicitly converts those to CRLF by calling append_cr().
