[New-bugs-announce] [issue16598] Docs: double newlines printed in some file iteration examples

New submission from Steven Kryskalla:

I heard someone complain about this code appearing in the official documentation in a few places:

for line in open("file.txt"):
    print(line)

This code will print two newlines.

I went through the current "default" and "2.7" branches and changed the places where this occurred to use print(line, end="") for 3.x or "print line," for 2.x.

r80699.patch is for the "default" branch (3.x)
r80694.py27.patch is for the "2.7" branch
