Here is a test case that demonstrates the problem for Win32: #!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use File::Temp qw(tempfile); use Test::More tests => 2; use_ok( 'IO::All' ); my ($fh,$filename) = tempfile(); my $binary = "foo\r\nbar"; binmode $fh; print $fh $binary; close $fh; my $content = io($filename)->slurp; is($binary, $content);

This is because that's how perl works. For the vast majority of the time \r\n and \n are interchangeable. If you *do* want to care, you can turn on binary yourself.
