In Xcode 7 putting \n in the middle of a string no longer moves the text that follows to a new line, it just prints the \n as if it were part of the string, how can his be overcome?

I think this is still in Beta at the moment? Stable releases remain as Xcode 6.
I'll see if I can dig out a list of changes and post back.

1,086 PointsI figured out the problem, it was Apple changing the name of the assistant editor, it's all sorted now, thanks :)

1,086 PointsIts in gold master state at the moment, and yeah i've got that part figured out, but the tutorial is telling me to type print("List:\n 1 - Apple\n 2 - Bananas\n 6 - Oranges", terminator: "") (the terminator is to stop it printing /n at the end of every line) except it prints the \n as if it were part of the string, i need it to print like this "List: 1 - Apple 2 - Bananas 6 - Oranges" and it prints this "List:\n 1 - Apple\n 2 - Bananas\n 6 - Oranges"
Thanks in Advance

57,712 PointsI've had a trawl through the documentation and the only reference to
\nthat I could find is of no use to this problem as it is talking about the end of string automatic newline, not one mid-string.
