n   LF  Line Feed     Used as a new line character on Unix   r   CR  Carriage Return     Used as a new line character on Mac   r n   CR   LF    Used as a new line character on Windows   char 13    r    CR   Environment NewLine   any of the above code based on the operating system      NET provides the Environment class which provides many data based on operating systems  so if the application is built on Windows  and you use CR   LF    n r  instead of Environment NewLine  as the new line character in your strings  and then Microsoft creates a VM for running  NET applications in Unix  then there will be problem  So  you should always use Environment NewLine when you want a new line character  Now you need not to care about the operating system
