Oh, sorry. You need two things:
- Python 2.5
- include this line at the very beginning of your script: from __future__
import with_statement
If you're using an earlier version, you can write:
finput = open(fname,'r')
try
...
finally
finput.close()
(Or just omit the try/finally and rely on the garbage collector, but it's
not the recommended practice, specially when external resources are
involved, like files).
