maybe the following are simpler as they use print
if you are using python 2.6 or python 3: >>> from __future__ import print_function >>> f = open('myfile.txt', 'w') >>> print(123, file=f) >>> print(456, file=f) >>> f.close() alternatively, in python 2.5 or 2.6: >>> f = open('myfile.txt', 'w') >>> print >> f, 123 >>> print >> f, 456 >>> f.close() andrew -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
