Hello, I need to search and replace 4 words in a text file. Below is my attempt at it, but this code appends a copy of the text file within itself 4 times. Can someone help me out. Thanks!
# Search & Replace file = open("text.txt", "r") text = file.read() file.close() file = open("text.txt", "w") file.write(text.replace("Left_RefAddr", "FromLeft")) file.write(text.replace("Left_NonRefAddr", "ToLeft")) file.write(text.replace("Right_RefAddr", "FromRight")) file.write(text.replace("Right_NonRefAddr", "ToRight")) file.close() -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
