You do realize that it should be real easy to write a Basic09 program to convert 
a MSDOS text listing into OS9 format or a OS9 back to MSDOS.

Historically Macs are CR only just like OS9.  You will find many
editors still refer to using CR as 'Macintosh format'.

It would make a lot of sense to use an editor that supported the
format you need.  Notepad++ and JEdit are two such examples (jedit is
open source and runs on any platform, not sure about notepad++).
