splitting by double newline

Hello everybody, I'd like to split a file by double newlines, but portably. Now, splitting by one or more newlines is relatively easy: self.tables = re.split("[\r\n]+", bulk) But, how can I split on double newlines? I tried several approaches, but none worked... -- "Now the storm has passed ov
