..Is the new-line
character represented differently on a different platform?
Sure is. Best to initilaise the line feed character as..
System.getProperty( "line.separator" );
Do you know an OS that uses a different line feed that runs Java?
AFAIU, JRE's on windows did historically return \n\r,
whereas *nix variatns use only \n.
OTOH, using System.getProperty("line.separator"),
is 'forward compatible' in the sense that if any new
OS architectures were to become support, or either
Win/*nix to suddenly change the line separator
(my bet would be Windows), the code would adapt.
