Why is python turning \x0a into a \n ?
In [120]: h='\x0a\xa8\x19\x0b'
In [121]: h
Out[121]: '\n\xa8\x19\x0b'
I don't want this to happen, can I prevent it?
It's not happening. What you're seeing is the representation of the
four bytes, and \x0a _is_ \n and python displays the common form to
assist interpretation.
What you can do is write a display function to suit your needs if it
makes a difference.
