Common Options for newline=
OptionﾠDescription
newline=NoneﾠDefault. Universal newline mode: all \n, \r\n, and \r are translated to \n
on reading and back to system default on writing.
newline=''ﾠNo translation: newline characters are written and read as-is. Often used with
csv to prevent extra blank lines on Windows.
newline='\n'ﾠUse only line feed. Suitable for Unix/Linux-style newlines.
newline='\r\n'ﾠUse carriage return + line feed. Standard for Windows text files.
newline='\r'ﾠUse carriage return only (classic Mac-style, rarely used today).
