And just in case it has become difficult to follow this thread because
the subject should have changed to something else, I think what Wolfgang
Denk wants is an option to extent "env export" to export the environment
to text files with CRLF.

I've made a suggestion here:

http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2014-August/185272.html

But as there was no response until now (I'm not impatient, I'm just
mentioning it again because I think you've missed about what Wolfgang
Denk started to discuss). it's just an assumption from me, I don't have
any clue what he means with symmetry in regard to that "-r".

And without any consensus I will not spend the time to write the few
lines of source to implement that (I don't need it). As written before,
I don't even care much if -r for "env export -t" ends up in mainline U-Boot.

So there is no problem, Wolfgang Denk and I are just discussing if and
how to extend "env export". That is at least how I do now understand
this thread about the simple patch I've posted some years ago.
