this question sounsds trivial, but as mtlabe is strange it is not trivlial.

i just want to ad a newline character at the end of something, but JUST a newline. witch seems impossible in matlab.
my program is something like:

while
if
fprintf bla
end
if
fprintf anotherbla
end
if
fprinft thethirdbla
end
frprintf newline
end

but fprintf(1,'/n') does not escape /n


And i am still wondering why someone created a sometimes escaping and sometiemes not escaping escpase sequentce.

is there a way to force the escape?

You have \n is new line. You have to use also \r (carriage return)

try this way:
fprintf(fid,'\r\n');

did you mean to try using fprintf(1,'\n') ?

fprinft(1,FORMAT) prints into the comand window.

I was pointing out that you need to use the backslash ('\') to escape n to
create a newline.
The code you post uses the forward slash ('/').
