read() / readline() / readlines()

[Dave Lajoie]

Hello!
    would someone know a method that allows
    to read line delimited by "\n" instead of trapping "\0" like
    readlines does?

I have to write my own while loop to do this.

    while myThread.isAlive() == True:
        myChar = p.stdout.read(1)
        if myChar == '\0':
            print "Found EOF, exiting!"
            break
        myStr = myStr + myChar
        if myChar == '\n':
                print myStr
                myStr = ""
                continue

is there a more elegant way to do this?
tx
Dave.
