\n is not escaped when read from a file. It is escaped when source code 
is compiled. Your text literally contains a backslash followed by an n. 
In source code this would look like "\\n" because \\ is the escape code 
for a backslash.

To get around this, replace "\\n" with "\n" in the text you have read 
from the file. In other words, replace the literal '\n' which is 
represented as "\\n" in source, with a return code which is represented 
as "\n" in source.

Cheers,
Ian.
