Hi folks, I am trying to read the first occurence of non-whitespace in a file, within a zipfile. Here is my code:
zipnames = glob.glob("<search_dir>*") for zipname in zipnames: z = zipfile.ZipFile(zipname, "r") for filename in z.namelist(): count = len(z.read(filename).split('\n')) if fnmatch.fnmatch(filename, "*AUDIT*"): test = filename.split(' ') print 'File:', test[0], bytes = z.read(filename) print 'has', len(bytes), 'bytes' print 'and', count, 'lines' The first line in the file I am examining will be a number followed by more whitespace. Looks like I cannot split by whitespace? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
