Hi James,
Tried your program on windows and I could NOT see the problem you are
describing, to me it worked as expected.

And here you are talking about a new line of text and not a newline
character[1] as a line ending - something that I think is confusing many
of the other replies.
For me it did insert a new line, .. onto the text view.
Once closing the app, .. I can see the new line in the file also.
It did not matter were the line was inserted at the end of the text or
somewhere in the middle.
So unless you have changed the source to a working copy since posting
this message, I'm not sure why you are seeing the behaviour you are seeing..
Just to be sure you were not talking about line endings as the problem,
I also checked the line endings on the text file, .. under windows they
were <CR><LF>. I then did a second test and started with a file that had
linux line endings, modified it in your program, and checked it after
and ALL line endings had been converted to windows format line endings.
The only thing I found annoying was that there was no cursor in the text
view, so you had to use mouse to find the correct insert point, and wait
till the first character came out to check it was were you expected.
