Run your script and "pipe" the output to "| od -c" the octal dumper will
show you what characters you're printing.....I'm guessing python's "print"
is adding one and each line in your file contains another.
You can also use a "," in python.... I forget the exact syntax, something
like "print(line)," to prevent the carriage return from "print", but
ideally you should clean up the line if it's contaminated without unexpected
characters.
