You use a string function or string method that removes the eventually present
ending newline, any kind of. There is one in std.string too. Its main problem
(beside working with char[] only in D1) is that its name is too much similar to
another string function. I have complained about this time ago.
Regarding the newline at the end of lines, in Python:
for line in file("somefilename.txt"):
print line
line contains the ending new line too.
