Summary:  documentation for line translation in socket operations

Original Submission:  I just downloaded 7.7.90 to test the line translation 
change in socket operations.  It works well.  I forgot initially that "n", not 
#f, was the way to ensure that no translation was done.



May I suggest changing the documentation for `open-tcp-stream-socket' and 
`tcp-server-connection-accept' explicitly to mention using "n" to turn off line 
translation?  Right now, it says "If this is unspecified or #f, then lines will 
be terminated by CR-LF...", but that doesn't make it clear that lines that are 
already terminated with CR-LF will also be modified.  (At least, it seems that 
that was what was happening to me.)



Thanks!
