We don’t really know either, without seeing the file.  It probably has
some unwanted garbage produced by your fancy-schmancy editor.  Get a
real plain text editor (TextWrangler for example) and don’t use
rich-text editors.  With a real editor, your code works here.

Also, don’t do this:

It’s better to let Python show the exceptions.
