That depends on how the data will be read. Here is one way to do it:
fileObject = open(filename, "w")
for line in sys.stdin:
parts = line.strip().split("\t")
fileObject.write("ta: %s\n" % parts[0])
fileObject.write("wa: %s\n" % parts[1])
fileObject.write("ua: %s\n" % parts[2])
fileObject.close()
But this doesn't use pickle format, so your reader program would have to
be modified to read this format. And you'll run into the same problem if
the reader expects to keep all the data in memory.
