New submission from Yongzhi Pan:
http://docs.python.org/py3k/tutorial/inputoutput.html#reading-and-writing-files
The text:
In text mode, the default is to convert platform-specific line endings (\n on
Unix, \r\n on Windows) to just \n on reading and \n back to platform-specific
line endings
Andrew Svetlov added the comment:
I'm not native English speaker, but for me it just means
\r\n - \n when read from stream and
\n - \r\n when write to stream
if OS is Windows.
That's correct.

Chris Jerdonek added the comment:
The last \n is needed for the reason Andrew mentioned, but it is true that the
sentence could probably be rephrased to reduce the chance of confusion.
