This is what I've got so far:
import sys
myfiles = sys.argv[1:]
for i in zip(open(myfiles[0]), open(myfiles[1]), open(myfiles[2])):
print " ".join(i)
How would you:
1. zip an arbitrary number of files in this manner? I hard-coded it
to do only three.
2. Strip out trailing spaces and line breaks from the lines in each file?
