Or people old enough to have been doing RTTY using mechanical teletype units.  Besides Carriage Return (CR) we had Line Feed (LF).  Of course on a typewriter carriage return gave you a line feed for free.

All these computer people seem to call it new line.

Some people miss AM.  I miss the pictures we used to do with CR and no LF to get overprints.
