 \r is not a valid character for Python input.

I suspect you're running on a Windows system. When
you saved this to file, the C library would have converted
the \r\n sequence to \n on the readback.

To insert a return, just use \n, regardless of the
system. Python (and C) takes care of the rest, unless
you really need the \r because you're using a network
rather than the file.

Are you sure you didn't mean "print '123'" ?
