[New-bugs-announce] [issue43049] Use io.IncrementalNewlineDecoder for doctest newline conversion

[Peter Donis]

New submission from Peter Donis <peterdonis at alum.mit.edu>:

This is a follow-up to issue 1812:

https://bugs.python.org/issue1812

It was suggested in the discussion on that issue that the newline conversion in doctest that was corrected in that issue could be done using already defined resources in the io module instead of by a custom function. This issue is to provide an issue number for my pull request on github to do that: the io module provides the IncrementalNewlineDecoder object that does exactly what is needed.
