1. Realize that no all line boundaries are "\r\n'.
2. You might try passing in "\r\n" in a template variable in case the
filter argument handling isn't processing the backslashes:
render...(...{...newline:"\r\n",...}) in the view, or in the extra
context in the urls.py if you're using generic views, and then {{
text|cut:newline }}
3. If 2 works on some but not all newlines (see 1) you could pass two
template variables, cr and lf, and do {{ text|cut:cr|cut:nl }}.
4. If you're not using generic views, you can always strip the line
boundaries in the view: text=text.replace("\r\n","")
5. You can always write a custom filter.
6. You probably actually want to replace the line boundary with a
space, rather than cut it, since otherwise you may run words together.
