.. attribute:: file.newlines
If Python was built with the :option:`--with-universal-newlines` option to
:program:`configure` (the default) this read-only attribute exists, and for
files opened in universal newline read mode it keeps track of the types of
newlines encountered while reading the file. The values it can take are
``'\r'``, ``'\n'``, ``'\r\n'``, ``None`` (unknown, no newlines read yet) or a
tuple containing all the newline types seen, to indicate that multiple newline
conventions were encountered. For files not opened in universal newline read
mode the value of this attribute will be ``None``.
