[Tutor] How to get a script to open a text file with Python?

[Dick Moores]

I have a script, fcn_double_phone_grep.py, that does a good job of searching my text file of phone numbers, phone.txt. The script is at < http://py77.python.pastebin.com/f3a8c1f87>

The script prints into the Windows command line window (I don't know the official term), from which copying is a PITA.

Now, the script writes into temp.txt, so I thought if I could also have Textpad open temp.txt, I could copy easily.

But I don't know how to have a script get Textpad to open a file. Please tell me.

Thanks,

Dick Moores
