Linux debian

I'm using the bot on the server itself where mediawiki is installed.

If I insert a new line with the replace.py script (e.g., with the replace string like "asdf\n"), a subsequent regex search of the same string (e.g, "asdf\n") won't match, while "asdf\r\n" will match.

It seems that when the bot must insert \n, actualy it inserts \r\n.
