Is it possible to open it in text mode without getting the CR ?

I don't think you understand the difference between binary and text mode.
You can read/write a text file in binary mode just fine.

We are trying to output a file with LF (line feed) only (ascii char
10), but we get also the CR (carriage return) character (ascii char
13).
Here is our program:

int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
FILE *fp = fopen("tmp.bin", "w");

Do

FILE *fp = fopen("tmp.bin", "wb");

(open as *binary*)

   char c1 = 10;
   fprintf(fp, "line1 %c line2", c1 );
   return 0;
}

And the binary output is:

6C 69 6E 65 31 20 0D 0A 20 6C 69 6E 65 32 line1 line2

How do we output a line with LF and not CR?

Don't open it in "text" mode (the default).
