Unfortunately our java client uses the ancient MicroSoft(TM)  end-of-line 
character(s) when it 
runs on Windoze(TM). Fldigi normally removes the end-of-line character form a 
command string, 
but does so only for Linux. Dave is working on a solution for fldigi, so the 
poor windoze(TM) users 
will also be able to use pskmail properly...

Windows(TM) needs an extra end-of-line character to make sure the printing 
carriage of your monitor moves to the beginning of the next line in time for 
the next one.

This is not a new problem, 4 years ago I wrote a small blog entry about the 
same windows(TM) feature:

Have a nice 2010!
