[racket] newlines in strings not the same in DrRacket and Racket
Very strange.
I did the same on my other computer and there it has the same problem as
before.
I use windows 7 on both systems one with 64 bit OS and one with 32 bit OS.
The 64 bit version does well, the 32 bit windows 7 system has the problem.
May be my preferences?
Thanks, Jos
