Hi Guile community!

First of all, thank you for the wonderful language you created.  It's
super fun for me to try to get stuff done using Guile.

Now to my problem: I have an XML file like this:


[-- Attachment #2: eol-guile.xml --]
[-- Type: application/octet-stream, Size: 139 bytes --]

<root>
  <node>Text with Windows
  line endings, that is, CRLF.</node>
  <node>Text with UNIX
  line endings, that is, LF.</node>
</root>

[-- Attachment #3: Type: text/plain, Size: 259 bytes --]


In this file there are elements that contain text nodes with CRLF
(Windows style EOL) and ones containing LF (UNIX style EOL).  I wish to
preserve the CRLF line endings.  However, the following little script
shows that they get lost during reading/parsing:


[-- Attachment #4: eol-guile.scm --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 214 bytes --]

(use-modules (sxml simple)
             (srfi srfi-26))

(let ((sxml (call-with-input-file "eol-guile.xml" xml->sxml)))
  (write sxml)
  (call-with-output-file "eol-guile-written.xml"
    (cut sxml->xml sxml <>)))

[-- Attachment #5: Type: text/plain, Size: 170 bytes --]


After reading in the file and parsing it to SXML the CRLF is gone.  This
seems to happen during the SXML parsing.  How do I prevent this from
happening?

Thanks,
Daniel
