os.linesep表示行結(jié)尾標志, 用本地變量名ls代替它節(jié)省了時間,并減少了消耗系統(tǒng)資源.
用 raw_input()讀入文件名
用列表all[]來保存每一行文本(它們暫時在內(nèi)存中).
最后創(chuàng)建文件后,用writelines()把內(nèi)存中的行寫入打開的文件中.

#get filename 
fname = raw_input('Enter filename: ')

except IOError, e: 
  print "*** file open error:", e 
else: 
  #display contents to the screen 
  for eachLine in fobj: 
    print eachLine, 
  fobj.close() 

$chmod a+x filename
