You should probably try to avoid reassigning sys.stdout. This is usually
a bad idea, and can cause odd behavior that is difficult to
troubleshoot, especially for a beginner. A reasonable approach is to
assign the open file object to a name of your own choosing...
.>>> podcast_file = open('podcast.txt', 'a')
... and then, use the write method of the file object ...
.>>> podcast_file.write('%s: %s' % (entry.updated, entry.link))
More info here:
http://www.python.org/doc/2.5.3/tut/node9.html#SECTION009200000000000000000
print '%s: %s' % (entry.updated, entry.link)
sys.stdout.close()
for entry in data.entries:
sys.stdout = open("podcast_links.txt", "a")
print '%s' % (entry.link)
sys.stdout.close()
getFeed()
This "podcast_file.write('%s: %s' % (entry.updated, entry.link))"
writes it in one very long string
The Latest Link

and sys.stdout prints to the file one line at a time
How do I split the long string, not even sure if that is the correct term?
for i in somefile: ?
re.somefile(do_something) ?
