How do I add newline within text string to zipfile using python 2.7 -


writing text zipfile using python. below if section of code using this. can't figure out character need use add new lines zipfile.

if count:     textx = "the following species present:"     blurb = "\r\ninsert table here\r\n\r\nsa* - south america\r\nna** - north america\r\nca*** - central america" else:     textx = "no species present."     blurb = "" 

right "if count" true, output in document looks this:

insert table here  sa* - south america  na** - north america  ca*** - central america 

i want this:

insert table here  sa* - south america na** - north america ca*** - central america 

below other pertinent script snippet might troubleshoot. script 600+ lines long why did not include whole thing. everyting works except piece.

replacetext = {"textspecies" : textx,         "textblurb" : blurb}  template = zipfile.zipfile("c:\\template.docx") response = zipfile.zipfile(results, "a")  open(template.extract("word/document.xml", databasedir + "\\")) tempxmlfile:     tempxml = tempxmlfile.read()  key in replacetext.keys():     tempxml = tempxml.replace(str(key), str(replacetext.get(key)))  open(databasedir + "\\temp.xml", "w+") tempxmlfile:     tempxmlfile.write(tempxml)  file in template.filelist:     if not file.filename == "word/document.xml":         response.writestr(file.filename, template.read(file))  response.write(databasedir + "\\temp.xml", "word/document.xml")  response.close() template.close() 

ideas how add new lines? tried \r, \n, \r\n, ^11. none worked.

thanks in advance.

from details give, clear want create word docx file. while docx file zip file, zip file specific content , specific rules content. of files found xml files, word/document.xml. within xml files whitespace (including line breaks, regardless whether of unix \n or windows persuasion \r\n) irrelevant. instead have create tags word expects , fill them reasonable data.

i have put minimal word/document.xml file 2 paragraphs here, see i'm talking (word writes these files without whitespace single line, have formatted here easier reading):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?> <w:document xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" xmlns:r="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officedocument/2006/relationships" xmlns:v="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml" xmlns:w="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/wordprocessingml/2006/main" xmlns:w10="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:word" xmlns:wp="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/drawingml/2006/wordprocessingdrawing">     <w:body>         <w:p>             <w:ppr>                 <w:pstyle w:val="style0"/>             </w:ppr>             <w:r>                 <w:rpr></w:rpr>                 <w:t>this first paragraph.</w:t>             </w:r>         </w:p>         <w:p>             <w:ppr>                 <w:pstyle w:val="style0"/>             </w:ppr>             <w:r>                 <w:rpr></w:rpr>                 <w:t>this second paragraph.</w:t>             </w:r>         </w:p>         <w:p>             <w:ppr>                 <w:pstyle w:val="style0"/>             </w:ppr>             <w:r>                 <w:rpr></w:rpr>             </w:r>         </w:p>         <w:sectpr>             <w:type w:val="nextpage"/>             <w:pgsz w:h="16838" w:w="11906"/>             <w:pgmar w:bottom="1134" w:footer="0" w:gutter="0" w:header="0" w:left="1134" w:right="1134" w:top="1134"/>             <w:pgnumtype w:fmt="decimal"/>             <w:formprot w:val="false"/>             <w:textdirection w:val="lrtb"/>         </w:sectpr>     </w:body> </w:document> 

it seems each line such <w:p> tag , new paragraph 1 need create new instanc eof tag information filled in.
