Problem with redirection, buffering and chaining scripts.

[Andre van Straaten]

As you read from a file to print out and I haven't seen a 
.close() statement, it was a suggestion that not closing the file is
retaining or delaying the data read together with the associated
print.
I have no further clue if this didn't help. Sorry.
