@Black-Cat In the .txt you have 12 characters since "\n" is 2 characters but "\n" is a character (carrier return). A possible solution is to replace those 2 characters with the one you want:
with open('text.txt') as x: y = x.read() y = y.replace("\\n", "\n") # or # y = y.replace(r"\n", "\n") self.shell_host.insertPlainText(y)
