I don't understand why readline is producing such unusual behavior.
I don't remember it working like this previously. The docs say it is supposed to read a line at a time.
this function
def ProcessFile(self, Inputfile, Outputfile=None):
try:
fh=open(Inputfile,"r")
except IOError:
print"\nError ocurred opening %s for input\n" % Inputfile
else:
FixedEntry = []
Entry = ""
for Entry in fh.readline():
print"Entry = %s" % Entry
fh.close()
is producing this result
Entry = A
Entry = l
Entry = i
Entry = a
Entry = s
Entry = ,
Entry = P
Entry = h
Entry = o
Entry = n
Entry = e
With this input file

Readline is supposed to read an entire line on each call, yet it is only reading one character.
