Hi!
From a FileWriter object I try to write some strings to file ending with a
new line. Instead of getting a new line I get  something like a bold
vertical bar?
It does not seemes to be any problem if I have started the FileWriter with
the 'FileWriter(String fileName)' constructor. I use the 'FileWriter(String
fileName, boolean append)'  constructor where I have the problem!
Is this some known problem and how can I come around it?
I have tried both to write the new line as "\n" and '\n' but with the same
result.
A strange thing is that I had the same problem in another program for first
then it suddenly started work, after just trying to alter between "\n" and
'\n' several times!?
