For reference, what you are seeing is a line endings issue. Windows' Notepad has always been famously and notoriously bad in this regard, as it only supports the carriage-return/line-feed (CRLF) combination for delimiting lines. [...] Most modern text editors are more aware of cross-platform issues and alternate encodings, so they will detect line endings and render appropriately. For example, Notepad++ is a great choice on Windows, if you want a more featured but still relatively lightweight editor.
Windows' bundled WordPad is another possibility. If a user prefers plain Notepad, opening a text file first in WordPad and simply saving it again will expand the line endings such that Notepad will understand them. Tedious but effective.
