\n, is 'line feed', or 'newline'. Depending on the actual 'terminal' being used to display the character, this may perform a line feed, or a carriage return may automatically be performed as well (\r).
In Hyperterminal, this is controlled by 'file', 'properties', 'settings', 'ASCII setup', and the tickbox 'append line feeds to incoming line ends'. The LCD always does this.
