My recommended solution is to not use Notepad, because it does not recognize non-Windows line formats. If you still want to be able to use Notepad with your output, replace all line feeds (0x0A
) with carriage return+line feed pairs (0x0D 0x0A
).
chrome.tabs.create({
url: 'data:text;base64,' + btoa(data.replace(/\n/g, '\r\n')),
active: false
});
