The new pandas-based text reader isn't able to work properly with files that contain carriage return symbols (
\r
).It fails with the following error message:
I figured out the pandas uses those symbols as line terminators and this eventually causes the error. Explicitly specifying the

fixes that issue and everything works fine.Please, consider this PR as it seems to be a common issue to solve.
