Hi everyone,

If you are working locally on a Windows machine and you create a test file make sure that the line endings are in Unix form.

Depending on the editor you use, hitting "enter" on a Windows machine to create a newline corresponds to a carriage return, \r\n. This is really two different ascii characters as opposed to a newline which is just, \n. 

If you are using Sublime you can fix this by going to View -> Line Endings -> Unix.
