In python (and many other languages) some special characters that are not easy
to represent have a code:
LF : \n
CR : \r
TAB : \t
So just add \n to to first line to add an eol: Text = "Hello World.\n" [Beware
that inside python \n actually both means char #10 and 'newline',
transparently, whatever the os uses as 'newline' code for text files. Very
handy.]
Alternatively, as you seem to be used to web codes, you can have hexa
representation \x0a or even octal \012
