[Python-3000] Lines breaking (original) (raw)

VT "Vertical Tab" 0B FF "Form Feed" 0C -1 on making these line-breaking characters by default. I like my ASCII text file lines broken by newline chars and nothing else.

The question, of course, is what a newline char is; this whole mess originates from disagreement about this issue.

For example, .splitlines considers carriage-return (CR) characters as well, and you don't seem to complain about that.
