Hi Everyone
I did a comparison of the output between the perl and python methodology.
They do basically the same thing but the perl form seems to be more "true"
The python method inserts extra blank lines after each hex value line.
For example:
Original text:
def handler(signal, frame):
"""
Trap signal interrupts if they occur
"""
Converted In Perl:
def handler%28signal%2C frame%29%3A
%22%22%22
Trap signal interrupts if they occur
%22%22%22
Converted In Python:
def handler%28signal%2C frame%29%3A
%22%22%22
Trap signal interrupts if they occur
%22%22%22
Does anyone know why this might be?
Is the print statement inserting a artificial new line character?
If so, how cam I remove that?
The python code I am using is:
import re,sys
for line i open(r'e:\pycode\sigh.txt','rb'):
print re.sub(r'([^\w\s])', lambda s: '%%%2X' % ord(s.group()), line)
The file is being opened in rb mode because eventually binary files
would be opened via this method as well.
