Hello All, I have a text file with marked up data that I need to convert into a text tab separated file.
The structure of the input file is listed below (see file 1) and the desired output file is below as well (see file 2). I am a complete novice with python and would appreciate any tips you may be able to provide. Best, Tess file 1: <item>TABLE</table> <color>black</color> <color>blue</color> <color>red</color> <item>CHAIR</table> <color>yellow</color> <color>black</color> <color>red</color> <item>TABLE</table> <color>white</color> <color>gray</color> <color>pink</color> file 2 (tab separated): TABLE black blue red CHAIR yellow black red TABLE white gray pink -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
