Sorry...I got the order wrong on them (that's what I get for
editing after copy&pasting). They should be swapped:
d = dict(line.rstrip('\n').split(','))
to strip off the newline before you
onary[key] = value
Thanks again,

Hi;
I have data in a file and I would like to write it to a dictionary, and then
perform commands on it, something like this:
input = "/usr/local/machine-lang-trans/dictionary.txt"
input = open(input,'r')
dict = "{"
for line in input:
? tup = re.split(','line)
? dict += '"' + tup[0] +'":"' +
