"\n" doesn't do the job

hi

This is weird,
everywhere I looked, it sais that inorder to [b]save to a text file[/b], I'l have to add a [b]"\n"[/b] at the end of the line.


but after I do it, when I open the text file in notepad, all the lines I have saved to it appear in one line.
and what seperates between the lines is an invisible charachter.

any ideas?


thank you.

Different operating system families have different line-ending conventions. When you write a text file and want to insert a line break, you need to use the correct line-ending character(s) for your operating system. Unix based systems use \n as the line ending character, Windows based systems use \r\n  as the line ending characters and Macintosh based systems use \r as the line ending character.
