write in the next line

[Sora]

hi , while i'm using fileWrite , i tried to go to the next line using

fileSetPos(file,fileGetPos(file)+110) 

but it just makes some spaces , how can i go to the next line ?

i want to do something like

local file = fileCreate("file.txt") 
fileWrite(file,"first line") 
goToNextLine(file) 
fileWrite(file,"second line") 
fileClose(file) 

file.txt

first line 
second line

Doesn't "\n" work?

local file = fileCreate("file.txt") 
fileWrite(file,"first line\nsecond line") 
fileClose(file)

Doesn't "\n" work?

local file = fileCreate("file.txt") 
fileWrite(file,"first line\nsecond line") 
fileClose(file)

does not work

What's the problem?

[Sora]

\n only works with notepad or scite but not with ms-notepad because the file opened using ms-notepad by default and it shows me first linesecond line

in notepad++ or scite ( lua editors )

first line

second line

To get it to work in MS Notepad (and anything else), do \r\n instead of just \n
