Liam, "rU" worked like a charm. My previous syntax where the lines were condensing was:
fOpen = file(f, "r")
fRead = fTmp.readlines()
In this instance the size of fRead would not correspond to my line numbers. With fOpen = file(f, "rU") it now does. Thanks :)

This will leave the \n in the strings. Reading with universal newlines is a
better solution.

In addition to the standard fopen() values mode may be 'U' or 'rU'.
If Python is built with universal newline support (the default) the
file is opened as a text file, but lines may be terminated by any of
