The last element in your "words" list will still have a newline
character appended to it.
You could probably use line.split().
See also the docs:
http://docs.python.org/py3k/library/stdtypes.html#str.split
for i, word in enumerate(words):
if len(word.strip(punctuation)) > 3:
# Capitalise and replace words longer than 3 (without
punctuation)
words[i] = word.capitalize()
# Join the capitalised words with spaces.
lines.append(' '.join(words))
This rebuilds the line including a newline character at the end.
# Join the capitalised lines by the line separator
capitalised = linesep.join(lines)
Because you haven't removed the newline character from each line,
joining them with "linesep" introduces a second newline character after
each line.
