[Tutor] deleting CR within files

[David Talaga]

Is there such a thing as a do loop in Python?  Like, do this until this is
done.  In my program I have a simple widget and need to initiate it before
my dialog pops up.  And then give the user the option to select more files
with the same widget.  I know that I need to use some kind of loop and in VB
a do loop would work best.  But what about in Python?

Are you sure thats not the origoinal data?

Try using the strip function since it will only strip off if there
is anything to strip so should work in all cases.

ie.   out_file.write(i.strip())
