Just a quicky: is there any way to force the newline symbol that 
JEditorPane outputs the the display to take a value that isn't native for 
the OS the application is running on?

Why I'm asking: I need to pass data from a Linux system to Windows-based 
website by copy & paste between a JEditorPane in my Java application and 
an input area on a web page. The web application is expecting CRLF 
newlines. My application uses String.replace() to convert newlines to 
CRLF  before the string is passed to the JEditorPane via its setText() 
method. However, when I copy the displayed text from the screen it always 
has the Linux LF linebreak in it rather than the CRLF.

According to the class description that the DefaultEditorKit sets itself 
up to use the first linebreak when data is loaded into it. There are 
hints in the description that the EndOfLineStringProperty can be changed, 
but as its declared final, this is never going to work.

So, my question: does anybody know how to change the linebreaks used by 
the editor after its been started and, particularly, if its possible to 
change the linebreak symbol used in the JEditorPane's on screen display 
area?
