Newline character

[dwu1998]

If I use Notepad to open a text file written by a Java program, the new line character displays as a special char rather than actually breaks to a new line. If I use Wordpad or read the file in Unix, it displays normally - it breaks to a new line. Anything I can do to resolve this?

Thanks!

I have seen some windows text editors that need the '\r' return control charactor added. I believe Notepad is looking for \r\n instead of \n alone.
