As I understand it, \n is a generic newline character, translated to the appropriate CrLf / Lf / Cr, depending on how the specific OS chooses to interpret a new line; using \n will translate correctly to what is required regardless of which environment the final destination is. In this regards, \n is actually platform INdependant.

Correct me if I'm wrong, the newline character \n is platform dependent. On unix-type it would equal a LF and on Windows it would equal a CRLF. Right?
