Two issues regarding script.
You have a typo on the file you are trying to open.
It is listed with a file extension of .in when it should be .ini .
Pardon?
The OPs original post used .in both in the python code and the command
line. Doesn't look like a typo to me.

I didn't say it couldn't be done. I just like the Perl version better.

It's easy - and broken. Bad things happen if you're using something other
than '\n' for EOL.

Or if the last line of your file doesn't end

Hi All,
I dont understand why the following code never finds tree.
I could not find the answer in the Python tutorials.
Here is the code, test43.in, and runtime:
#!/usr/bin/python
fname = open(test43.in)
var = 'tree'
for item in fname:
print item: , item,
if item == var:
print
Any reason for posting such an issue to the account list? Pillock!

It's the newline after each word that's messing you up.

The problem is that the lines you are reading from the file have a
newline at the end so 'tree' != 'tree\n'. See below for suggested
changes.

Try replace:
