Look at:
    LineEnd()

Your parsers normally don't see '\n' because the whitespace is removed 
by the parsing machinery. If you want to use the end-of-line 
frequently as an element in your grammar, you could tell Pyparsing 
that '\n' should not be treated as whitespace:
    ParserElement.setDefaultWhitespaceChars('\t ')

But you have to care for all the newlines youself then, which might 
become tedious. Look at 
    indentedBlock(...)
as an example how Paul (Pyparsing's author) does it. (I use 
indentedBlock myself.)

Kind regards,
Eike.
