I'm trying to iterate over the lines in a file, but its not working as the page seems to not use newline characters but carriage returns instead. Is there anyway to make readlines() seperate into a list of strings seperated by carriage returns?

You reading old mac files? hehe
Code:

file(..).read().split("\r\n")
# OR
file(..).read().split("\r")

Give that a whirl
