Subject: Windows newline not interpreted correctly.
When running a web application under IIS on Windows newlines in form fields are encoded as \r\n. Because of this the parser does not seem to recognize newlines properly. The following change on line 41 seems to do the trick, but should also be tested on other platforms. my $eol = '(?:\r\n|\n|$)'; # end of line (or string)

As I understand it, this is an application error, not an error in T::WC. I don't use Windows and can't give precise details, but the principle is easy. You need to decode all input when you read it and after its decoded, the newline will match "\n". Probably best to use one of the HTML form handling modules to deal with charsets as well as platform issues.
