DEC-VMS and DEC-OpenVMS used LFCR for text line endings. This is actually closer to how line printers operate, doing LF to feed the paper and then CR to move the print head back to the beginning. This is a good practice, to prevent moving the head and ribbon over printed text.

So maybe CP/M got it wrong and confused LFCR for CRLF, and so did MS-DOS and MS-Windows?

Does anyone know why MacOS Classic opted for CR for plain-text newline?
