a = ['==\r**', '==\n**', '==\r\n**', '==\u0085**',
'==\u000b**', '==\u000c**', '==\u2028**', '==\u2029**']
for e in a:
    print(e.splitlines())
    
['==', '**']
['==', '**']
['==', '**']
['==', '**']
['==', '**']
['==', '**']
['==', '**']
['==', '**']


Do not confuse these NLF's (new line functions) in the Unicode
terminology, with the end of line *symbols* (pilcrow, \u2424, ...)


I'm always and still be suprised by the number of hard coded
'\n' one can find in Python code when the portable (here
win)

>>> os.linesep
'\r\n'

exists.
