Use dos2unix to strip the extra carriage returns.

Window Wordpad handles the file fine. Mode editors
for development tools do too.
(Borland and MSVC++, Verilog, VHDL editor I've tried)
The real test is the compiler you use in Winblows.
Some still don't like linefeed only file, but
most are OK. Try a simple hello-world.c created
in linux w/o \r's and try compiling it with
youe Winblows compiler.
