Download output windows formatted (detect os?) #21

Bug feedback was submitted:

"The output files are unreadable because there is no formatting."

I can guess that this is because the output Unix formatted where line endings are represented by '\n' and Windows users expect '\r\n';

If the user agent is windows, we should try having it download with the windows line endings.

I have not tested this in Windows directly but the user agentness check should work.

For students who are curious about the technical reason behind this issue: http://kb.iu.edu/data/acux.html It's not that there's no formatting, but just the wrong formatting for your OS. Good to know for future projects.
