Hi, group, I have python2.3 installed on win2k. I noticed that when I open a dos format text file (eol is '\r\n'), readline() always returns a line ending with '\n' only, not '\r\n'. While I read the same file on unix, it returns a line ending with '\r\n' correctly. This makes me difficult to determine the format of a text file, dos or unix.
Is this a bug or intended behavior? If not a bug, then how to determine the format of a text file? Thanks. C -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
