Fix newlines when writing UTF-8 to Text file in python
Question: I'm at my wits end on this one. I need to write some Chinese characters to a
text file. The following method works however the newlines get stripped so the
resulting file is just one super long string.

I tried inserting every known unicode line break that I know of and nothing.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Here is snippet:

    
    
    import codecs   
    file_object = codecs.open( 'textfile.txt', "w", "utf-8" )
    xmlRaw = (data to be written to text file )    
    newxml = xmlRaw.split('\n')
    for n in newxml:
        file_object.write(n+(u'2424'))# where \u2424 is unicode line break    
    


Answer: If you use python 2, then use u"\n" to append newline, and encode internal
unicode format to utf when you write it to file:
`file_object.write((n+u"\n").encode("utf"))` Ensure `n` is of type `unicode`
inside your loop.
