python doesn't add a line ending on it's own with f.write()!
If you use
print "something"
python adds a line ending but not with write.
And there is no need to open the file in binary mode because
line endings differ on win and unix platforms and you want to
get the right thing on both platforms.
In binary mode, you have to write a "\r\n" on windows instead of just
"\n".
