--- Comment #1 from Julien Nabet <serval2412 at yahoo.fr> ---
There are 2 things to take into account:
- encoding (utf-8, plain ascii, ...)
- newline : Unix, macOS uses LF, Windows CRLF, Classic Mac OS CR
(see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newline)

So instead of saving with "Text (.txt)", choose "Text - Choose Encoding (.txt)"
+ click Edit filter settings checkbox at bottom left of panel.

You'll be able to choose:
- encoding
- paragraph break
- to use or not to use BOM (byte-order Mark)

Of course, you must know what's the OS (include version if possible) of the
person who will open your file.
