Hey,

I have been trying to print on the command line as a part of my handler
implementation. I have been using `nextPutAll: aString;lf.` Apparently, 'lf'
does not seem to work. I tried 'cr' too. I am using the latest 7.0 Pharo-vm
and pharo image. I tried 'OSPlatform current lineEnding' as suggested by
Clement Mastin. But, when I used the 6.0 version the 'lf' message is working
fine.

We did some changes to remodularize a bit more the kernel some weeks ago.��

The correct way to print a line ending is, as Clement pointed out, 'OSPlatform current lineEnding'. That is because there is no portable character for a new line. Each platform has its own.

That said, maybe you found a bug :). Since the image before automatically transformed cr's in line endings for a platform, I did a stream decorator that replaces that behaviour for Pharo 7, I just did it to make it work, did not test it further actually.

Could you try the following?

��- seeing what happens if you print a new line twice?
�� �� �� nextPutAll: aString; lf;lf

��- What is the stream you're using to print out? Transcript or Stdout? Could you show the entire expression you're using?
��- Can you print out the stream you're using?
�� �� ��stream nextPutAll: stream asString; lf.

Please find the attached image which demonstrates the same. The left
terminal is of version 7.0, right one is of 6.0. Can someone help me out
with this?
