Answer: Nope.

Removing that option converted 12M (quickly). The file command has nothing
about line terminators. When viewed in emacs each line ends in a comma, but
it is separated from the prior line. This is seen since the first field is
LocationID and each distinct row/line begins with a long number.

I'll use emacs' regex search/replace to replace the EOL with \n.

Looks like this is resolved.

My thanks to Rodney, Paul, and Galen.

Regards,

Rich
