ruby -v: 1.9.3


Calling File.foreach('somefile.txt', "r") on a windows platform adds newline characters after each lower case 'r', splitting the read lines after each instance.
Reading the following file
"""
This contains r characters
Wreck it Ralph
"""

outputs 

"""
This contains r
 character
s
Wr
eck it Ralph
"""
