I wanted to convert an array to a textfile with a newline separating each entry.
I found out about an npm package called array-to-txt-file. Here is the webpage: array-to-txt-file
This package claims that will concatenate every element of the array with a newline, so that every element of the array appears on its own line on the text file.
So i gave it a try and while it works great it doesn't concatenate the elements with a newline. Where one element ends, another one begins.
So i took a look at the source code of the package and this is the code that creates this effect.
try {
array.forEach(v => {
if(_.isPlainObject(v)) {
ws.write(`${JSON.stringify(v)}\n`)
return
}
ws.write(`${v}\n`)
})
Especially the ws.write(
${v}\n)
part.
I then imported my output text file into a hex editor. In the hex editor there was dot between each element. Now, this dot was different to a regular dot.
While a regular dot has the hex value of 2E
, the dot that appears between the elements has 0A
.
Please also note that i am using Windows 7, and when viewed with notepad, nothing appears between the elements - where one ends, another one begins straight up.
So is there a way to modify that line in the code i posted above, so it really creates a newline in that part?
\r
(0D) is CARRIAGE RETURN (CR) CHARACTER (U+000D)\n
(OA) is LINE FEED (LF) CHARACTER (U+000A)On Linux, \n
represents new line.
Two characters combined \r\n
represent a new line on Windows.
Try replacing \n
with \r\n
in both the write
statements inside index.js
file of the module.
Those dots represent non-printable characters. While the regular dot .
FULL STOP (U+002E) is represented by 2E
.
