Hello Albert,
thanks for your answer!

The 'while' loop can be replaced by a 'for' loop, like
for line in infile:
outfile.write(line)
I first was thinking of/experimenting with a 'for' loop, but what I
originally had in mind was to combine the 'for' loop with readline() --
which Python disallows. So I changed to a 'while' loop.
The simplest solution would be to construct a new line from the old
one directly below the 'while', for example
line2 = line[:-1] + " -d\n"
followed by writing line2 to disk.
The question that arises however is, what should be done with a line like
"bla bla \n"
Do you want
"bla bla -d\n"
or do you want
"bla bla -d\n"
here?
I want "bla bla" -d\n ;-)
Let me try your suggestions out!
Cheers,
David
