The point is: the TeXmacs format *takes into account*
carriage returns. Thus, you must be careful when
editing TeXmacs files under emacs, one more or
less carriage return can corrupt your file.

Other solution: edit the style files inside TeXmacs,
by means of Document->View->Edit source tree (which
should be the default mode for style files, btw.).
