I've got this:

var quoted_text = window.getSelection;

For example:

Use split()

Fore example

str = "abc\ndef";
console.log(str.split("\n"));

will print out

["abc", "def"]

Use JavaScript .split() function to create an array with elements split by '\n' and then manually iterate through that array and add '<' for each item. The following code may help :

var str="How\nare\nyou\ndoing\ntoday?";
var n = str.split("\n");
for(var x in n){   
    n[x]= '>'+n[x]; 
    alert(n[x]);
}
