Line buffering is used by default on most operating systems (ok, maybe not Windows, which looks strange to me) and is not specific to Python.

Yes, Python has subtle differences on different operating systems, but at least it looks like Python 3 has the same behaviour on Linux and Windows ;-)

Can you please write a patch for the doc? Reopen the issue if you have a patch.
