Use :class:`io.TextIOWrapper` for reading compressed text files in
:term:`universal newlines` mode.
+* The undocumented ``IN``, ``CDROM``, ``DLFCN``, ``TYPES``, ``CDIO``, and
+ ``STROPTS`` modules have been removed. They had been available in the
+ platform specific ``Lib/plat-*/`` directories, but were chronically out of
+ date, inconsistently available across platforms, and unmaintained. The
+ script that created these modules is still available in the source
+ distribution at :source:`Tools/scripts/h2py.py`.
