Hi All,

Up to now I when I need to write some data to a file I have been
purposely using close()

f = open(conf, 'w')
f.writelines(lines)
f.close()

Is it as safe to use the following ....

open(conf, 'w').writelines(lines)

ie no close() to flush the data, but also not assigned an object name
so am I right in thinking that as the object is 'reclaimed' close() is
automatically called ?

Cheers

Dave
