I see what you are saying, but even that way of looing at it falls 
down since if you have a string that just conatins one CR character, 
there is only one (blank) line.

The definition seems to me to be:

myLineCount = number of CR in myString
if last char of last line of myString is not equal to CR then
  add 1 to myLineCount
end if

In which case, for me anyway, it really does help to see it as a 
"terrminator" rather than a "delimiter", although it acts as both.

I would guess that it hold a counter of the size of the string, this 
would make sense, since it would take a long time to keep recomputing 
the size by scanning each character.
