I was reading that. I have read it before. I don't use python enough
to even remember the simple stuff. Then when I try to use if for
something simple I forget how.
f = open('wout.txt', 'r+')
for line in f:
 line=line.strip()
 f.write(line+" *")
f.close()
Still broke. How about just telling me where I missed? Please?
