convert eol determines whether the function converts the end of line markers it writes into system end of line markers. An end of line marker is a carriage return followed by a linefeed on Windows, a carriage return on Mac OS, and a linefeed on UNIX. The LabVIEW end of line marker is a linefeed.
I think this issue has not caused problems because the Write to Text file converts EOL by default, and LabVIEW understands the old Mac EOL.
So I think we should switch Pretty Print to use LF (\n) rather than CR (\r).
