anatoly techtonik <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: That's weird and the worst is that it is not documented. Manual says:
"If Python is built without universal newline support a mode with 'U' is the same as normal text mode." but no information about what is "normal text mode" behaviour. The way Python works that you describe is weird, but true. If developer uses Windows platform - Unix and Windows files will be handled in the same way, but not files from Mac platform. The worst that developer can't know this, because he is unlikely to have any Mac files to test. This behavior is like a long standing mine to collate Windows and Mac Python users. Why not to fix it? _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3359> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
