I don't agree with the idea of using a counter. Its not pythonic, and I'm assuming the OP is just starting to learn python. Not apropos to the OP, but what came up in my mind was to write a generator function that returns every other line. This would separate the reading from the writing code. > > > > -- > https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list -- Joel Goldstick http://joelgoldstick.com -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
