How to insert word break into textarea in text inserted via jquery/javascript?

Question

I have a textarea and would like to list some items in it one on each line.

I am already inserting the text normally in the textarea and separating the items in commas currently:

nomUgs = selUgs.join(", ");

Instead of this comma wanted to insert line break. It’s like?

You can use the \n to break the line.

For example this code separates each word into a different line:

var texto = 'Eu quero que este texto seja separado em muitas linhas!';
var linhas = texto.replace(/\s/g,'\n');
$('#testes').val(linhas);
