Because it's bad to open files without a with unless you know what

Shouldn't that be:
with open('/home/collier/pytest/__sort.TXT') as file:
data = file.readlines()
sorted(data, key=str.casefold, reverse=True)
I'm tempted to say "HINT #5: don't provide a solution without testing
it first" but that would be pretty obnoxious.
I tried Joshua's suggestion in Python3.3 and it worked. What version of
Python are you using?
