Another solution (not tested here but used in other projects) could be to use with open(source, "r", encoding="utf-8") as f: (or if the file could contain the aberration BOM, you could use "utf-8-sig") And it should convert automatically all kind of line-ends and still return text. I'm assuming this is for python 3.5 or later.
