[whatwg] CR "entities" and LFCR

[Kristof Zelechovski]

Oops.  I would swear that text mode input is performed by the operating
system.  It turns out I was wrong and the POSIX compatibility layer is
provided by the compiler vendor.  That means the exact behavior depends
indeed.
Thanks for the clarification.
Cheers

Depends on what does the reading.
