As far as I know, if you want a portable solution, you'd better add an \r and an \r character to end your line. That is, the following line would be better :

Just to clarify the above. Windows uses "\r\n" - Carriage return, line feed whereas Unix based systems use just "\n" - line feed - to denote a new line.

In case you're wondering where the names come from think of how typewriters used to work. Carriage return was the pulling back of the moving cylinder which held the paper (carriage!) so the print hit the left hand side of the paper again and the line feed was turning the handle to feed more paper through.
