Project Sahara: certificate output with CRLF, not just CR - Openssl
This is a discussion on Project Sahara: certificate output with CRLF, not just CR - Openssl ; This is a completely stupid question, but is there a command line option
from openssl to add use CRLF instead of just CR. Running unix2dos after
the file is made is not an easy option in Windows...unfortunately.

Re: Project Sahara: certificate output with CRLF, not just CR
Not that I know of.
Hm, you may want to edit the sample code where it opens the stdout BIO
(look for BIO_new_fp(stdout, BIO_NOCLOSE)) and add the BIO_FP_TEXT
flag there to make it spit out CRLF line ends on msdos/win, then
recompile.
i.e.:
var = BIO_new_fp(stdout, BIO_NOCLOSE);
-->
var = BIO_new_fp(stdout, BIO_NOCLOSE|BIO_FP_TEXT);
Caveat: when you write binary format files to such a BIO, they will be
damaged as every byte 0x0A (LF) will be converted to the sequence 0x0D
0x0A (CR LF): the code has no way of knowing what sort of data you are
feeding it. If you don't want that risk, you should add a little extra
code (adding a commandline option) to selectively add that BIO_FP_TEXT
flag there.
