You could try

This is one case where I really miss Perl's "chomp" function. It
removes a
trailing newline and nothing else, so you don't have to worry about
losing
leading or trailing spaces if those are important to you.
... and it's so hard to write
item = item[:-1]
Tsk. That would be "chop". "chomp" would be
if item[-1] == '\n':
item = item[:-1]
