Hey all how're things?
I'm hoping for some guidance on a problem I'm trying to work through.
I know this has been previously covered on this list but I'm hoping it
won't bother you guys to run through it again.
My basic program I'm attempting to create is like this..
I want to read from a large,
quite easy to do; just use enumerate - as so:
myString = "The String"
with open('largeFile', 'r') as inF:
for index, line in enumerate(inF):
#myString = "The String" ##Not here because otherwise this gets run
for every single line of the large file (which is nasty waste of resources)

Honestly this seemed like a good excuse to write some code and learn
some stuff, secondly, it honestly just didn't dawn on me.
Also, the code y'all both showed me was exactly what I was looking for
and I'm planning on using Nicks code as a template to improve upon.

One last question on this topic..
I'd like to call the files and the string form the command line like
Python whatever.py STRINGTOSEARCH NEWFILE FILETOOPEN
My understanding is that it would be accomplished as such
import sys
myString = sys.argv[1]
filetoopen = sys.argv[2]
newfile = sys.argv[3]

I get this error
Traceback (most recent call last):

With this amount of code:

You get the error because you call path1pt1() before it is defined. Define
your path1pt1() method at the top of your code before simpstart().

And just for the records sake, this is what I've gotten and you guys
should see obviously that you helped a lot and I learned a thing or
two so I won't have to ask the same silly questions next time:

Right idea, but not quite correct.
sys.argv always includes at least one item, the name of the script being
called. This
