joining the lines is simple - use an empty string as the thing to join on, and if you want to ditch the beginning space there's a function for that too (lstrip). But... if you don't have a precise way to know if a word was split in the middle or on a space (or do you know this?), you probably need human intervention to reassemble the original. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
