LF and CR are entered by pressing the Enter or Return key. Exactly which character(s) are entered depends on the file type: PC (CR,LF), Unix (LF) or Mac (CR). For text files (TextPad is a text editor) it would be inappropriate to enter a line-ending character inconsistent with the file's format, so the means of doing so aren't provided.
