[issue42279] replacements function corrupts file

[Zachary Ware]

Zachary Ware <zachary.ware at gmail.com> added the comment:

That's because you're writing an output line once per replacement rather than once per input line.

For usage questions such as this, you'll be better off on a forum such as discuss.python.org, the python-list at python.org mailing list, or the Python Discord community (pythondiscord.com).
