Hello, I have a simple script to parse a text file (a visual basic program) and convert key parts to tcl. Since I am only working on specific sections and I need it quick, I decided not to learn/try a full blown parsing module. My simple script works well until it runs into functions that straddle multiple lines. For example:
Call mass_write(&H0, &HF, &H4, &H0, &H5, &H0, &H6, &H0, &H7, &H0, &H8, &H0, _ &H9, &H0, &HA, &H0, &HB, &H0, &HC, &H0, &HD, &H0, &HE, &H0, &HF, &H0, -1) I read in each line with: for line in open(fileName).readlines(): I would line to identify if a line continues (if line.endswith('_')) and concate with the next line: line = line + nextLine How can I get the next line when I am in a for loop using readlines? jr -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
