Re: [Python-Dev] Patch submitted for cross-platform newline support

- Python code can pass a new "t" mode parameter to open() which reads files with any newline convention. "t" cannot be combined with any other mode flags like "w" or "+", for obvious reasons.

so "t" can be both a mode (like "r" and "w") and a mode modifier (like "t" and "b")? could be confusing. </F>
