Hello,
I am scanning a text file and replacing words with alternatives. My
difficulty is that all occurrences are replaced (even if they are part of
another word!)..
This is an example of what I have been using:
for line in fileinput.FileInput("test_file.txt",inplace=1):
> line = lin
oops, I mean that the script opens a file and splits it into words; Then it
takes each word and searches for an alternative online; with the alternative
now stored in a variable, it simply needs to be written back over the
original word in the same file.
at the moment this might solve the problem,
