[Coco] OS9 text file format

I agree. . Notepad++ is a nice program and it handles OS9 text files 
well without trying to convert them over to CR/LF or LF only. I think 
that all of the source files for the NitrOS9 project should be converted 
over to OS9 format as most of them are not. Right now it is practically 
impossible to import the files into a native OS9 environment and use 
them without first converting them. If we have an editor that handles 
the OS9 text files under Windows and Linux I don't think there's any 
good reason to continue using files with CR/LF or LF line terminators.
