A Perl script can easily serve as a filter within a pipe as seen in the following:
use strict; use warnings; open(IN, 'cat hello.txt |') or die 'unable to open file'; while (<IN>) { print; } close(IN); Can I do the same within Python? Thanks. Jim _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
