QTextCursor::selectedText

[evgenM]

i have this code

TextEdit::TextEdit()
{
	setPlainText("text1\ntext2");
	select();
}
//
void TextEdit::select()
{
		QTextCursor cursor = textCursor();
		while (!cursor.atEnd())
		{
			cursor.movePosition(QTextCursor::NextCharacter, QTextCursor::KeepAnchor);
		}
		cout <<qPrintable(cursor.selectedText())<<endl;
}

TextEdit::TextEdit()
{
	setPlainText("text1\ntext2");
	select();
}
//
void TextEdit::select()
{
		QTextCursor cursor = textCursor();
		while (!cursor.atEnd())
		{
			cursor.movePosition(QTextCursor::NextCharacter, QTextCursor::KeepAnchor);
		}
		cout <<qPrintable(cursor.selectedText())<<endl;
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

so my text is "text1\ntext2" but function select() return "text1?text2"
'?' it's unprintable Enter?
how to get text in normal mode with '\n' using QTextCursor?

QTextCursor::selectedText():

Note: If the selection obtained from an editor spans a line break, the text will contain a Unicode U+2029 paragraph separator character instead of a newline \n character. Use QString::replace() to replace these characters with newlines.

PS. Why not use QTextEdit::selectAll()?
