line wrapping problem

[S Borg]

Hello,

 I am parsing text from one document to another. I have a scheme
similar to:

 for x in myfoobar:
   print >> mytextfile, "%s    " % mydictionary[x],   #all on same line
 print >> mytextfile, '\n'      #new line


I am getting line breaks before my explicit line break. Am I
unwittingly copying '\n' characters from the original file?
How should I fix this(What is the 'Pythonic' solution)?

thanks,
-S
