Unexpected output with Console.Write

dunawayc · May 2017

When using Console.Write with an empty string, in the Results pane a carriage return and linefeed are inserted instead. This does not happen in a Console project using Visual Studio.

LinqPad version: v5.22.00 beta

Test code:

void Main()
{
    Console.Write("Hello");
    Console.Write("|");
    Console.Write("World");
    Console.Write("|");
    Console.Write("");   //Writing an empty string
    Console.Write("|");
    Console.Write("Hello");
    Console.Write("|");
    Console.Write("World");
}

Output:

Hello|World|
|Hello|World

Expected output:

Hello|World||Hello|World

Please advise.

Additional information:

When viewing the source of the Results pane I see this:

<body><div id='final'>Hello|World|<br />|Hello|World</div></body>

Is there any way to prevent the break from being inserted?
