I have an excel file that is used to generate input files for scientific equipment where users fill in their samples and it generates a file the equipment can read. However, I've noticed that if a Windows Excel saves the tab-delimited file the machine (which is on Windows) works fine, but if the file is saved from Excel on Mac, it doesn't work and throws errors saying "expecting <EOF>".
When I look at the Windows file in Notepad++ there's a CRLF at the end of the file and it's missing on the file made on Mac. Is there any way to have that CRLF show up on Mac-saved tab-delimited files, either through Excel itself or add it after it's saved? I've seen to try "Windows Formatted Text" as a format when saving, but it isn't there.
I've also seen the same difference with the CRLF on csv between Windows and Mac.
