Method	Modifiers	Description
convertTo(input, newlineKind)	`static`	Converts all newlines in the provided string to use the specified newline type.
convertToCrLf(input)	`static`	Converts all newlines in the provided string to use Windows-style CRLF end of line characters.
convertToLf(input)	`static`	Converts all newlines in the provided string to use POSIX-style LF end of line characters. POSIX is a registered trademark of the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers, Inc.
ensureTrailingNewline(s, newlineKind)	`static`	Returns the input string with a trailing `\n` character appended, if not already present.
escapeRegExp(literal)	`static`	Escapes a string so that it can be treated as a literal string when used in a regular expression.
getNewline(newlineKind)	`static`	Returns the newline character sequence for the specified `NewlineKind`.
padEnd(s, minimumLength, paddingCharacter)	`static`	Append characters to the end of a string to ensure the result has a minimum length.
padStart(s, minimumLength, paddingCharacter)	`static`	Append characters to the start of a string to ensure the result has a minimum length.
replaceAll(input, searchValue, replaceValue)	`static`	Returns the same thing as targetString.replace(searchValue, replaceValue), except that all matches are replaced, rather than just the first match.
truncateWithEllipsis(s, maximumLength)	`static`	If the string is longer than maximumLength characters, truncate it to that length using "..." to indicate the truncation.
