This can alternatively be done with map():

At one time (before 2.2), they were functions and not classes.
Yes they are types. But they can still be used

You can define getLines in terms of the readline file method, which does
return new data when it is available.

For me, there are some things I don't like much. One-character
variable names stand out (tend to make the code hard to read).
Violation of PEP 8 guidelines, especially wrt spacing. e.g.

I've been working on this for 3 weeks as a project while I'm learning
python. It's ugly, only function in there is from a fellow lister, but
it works perfectly and does what it is intended to do.

be good to turn into a function
