Update of /cvsroot/python/python/dist/src/Lib/plat-mac
In directory sc8-pr-cvs1.sourceforge.net:/tmp/cvs-serv3138

Modified Files:
	plistlib.py 
Log Message:
Made <data> output match Apple's exactly. To do that I had to add a custom
version of base64.encodestring() so I could control the line length of the
base64 output.
