Vernon:

Thank you very much for your reply.
Since the unicode text is not hard coded and is read from file I thought
that writing
line = line[0:-1]
will get rid of the new line character but it seemed I have to write
line = line.replace("\r","").replace("\n","")
now the code works correctly.

Thanks again.
