In the spec:
 EndOfLine:
		\u000D
		\u000A
		\u000D \u000A
		EndOfFile

I think that is the wrong way of doing it. I recall the mac has an lfcr
terminator.
I think the best generalization should be:

[] means optional
D[A] || A[D]

No, the Mac has "\r" only. Unix has "\n" only. Now that the Mac is Unix, guess what... it deals with both, depending on the program you talk about. DOS and derivatives have LFCR.
