When i'm appending to the text file... the text that i inserted appears after the last character of the file... But i wanted to insert a new line... so the text i'm appending must be a new line...
I tried entering "\n" + my appended string but the file recognizes \n as a square like ([]) character....

MAYBE YOU COULD TRY SOMETHING LIKE THIS:

AND WRITE OUT THE NEWLINE STRING INSTEAD OF "\n". ON MANY PLATFORMS "\n" IS INSUFFICIENT. FOR EXAMPLE, WINDOWS USERS GENERALLY NEED "\r\n".

That's a very big dog. I think I want to go home now and hug this tiny ad:
