Angelina: Invalid TUN file format (sometimes)

I just purchased Angelina and am trying to use its micro-tuning feature. All of the sample *.tun files included in the download zip file load in OK except the two Werckmeister files, which give an error. But all *.tun files I've tried from other sources (i.e., converted from Scala files) won't load. Some of those in the latter (no-load) bunch include an extra "exact tuning" section, so I suppose that is a problem. But the no-loading Werckmeister files don't include the "exact tuning" section and have no obvious differences in layout compared to the files that load OK.

Any help on figuring out how to get a *.tun file in general to work in Angelina will be greatly appreciated.

On investigation with a hex editor, at the end of the comment line (before the line "[Tuning]"), both of the non-loading Werckmeister files have 0D but not 0A; adding an 0A there fixes them. One of the sample *.tun files uses only 0A and not 0D at line ends, so it seems that 0A alone would be OK, too.

I still need to check if missing 0As are causing problems in other (converted) files.

For the record, all my converted *.tun files do work fine if the second section ("exact tuning") is removed from them.
