Maybe something like this

4. replace with \\n"

OR simpler

In Regex you can group expressions using () - Parenthesis, and represent them as \1, \2, etc. So, anything like this can be appended as follows:

Find: (.*); Replace: \1 your_new_text ;

ctrl+h

make sure regex is on.

find: (.)\r\n

replace: \1 + "\\\n"\r\n

For anyone still here 5 years later, and you are attempting to add something onto the end a line for a large non-code file (and don't want to use REGEX), there are helpful online converter tools like https://pinetools.com/add-text-each-line.
