Mif2Go: removing CRLF from CodeStore content

Thanks. I can't find anything about "CodeSource" in the manual. In the 
[HtmlStyles] section, I can assign pre or blockquote to the paragraph 
format; this changes the paragraph tag in the output from <p> to <pre>, 
for example. If I recall, this would cause the browser to honour any 
CRLFs in the paragraph.

What I want to do is take some text that appears early in the paragraph, 
and convert it to a link in an MS HTML Help "Related Topic" button. As 
part of this, I have to provide text for the link. My problem is that 
the text contains CRLF characters, and these show up as little squares 
in the link. I can't get rid of them. There is no test I can find that 
returns 1 when a character is 0a or 0d, or when a string contains \n.
