[Tutor] file read - rewind? (original) (raw)

I want to read in a file, act on each line of the file, and then start at the beginning again. I don't see a rewind function in the fileinput module, yet it still does not work by simply executing the for line in inputfile again. What am I missing? The while loop should repeat until STOP_READ is set to TRUE.

    STOP_READ = wx.FALSE
    first_iteration = wx.TRUE
    #While not STOP_READ, iterate through lines in file
    while STOP_READ == wx.FALSE or first_iteration == wx.TRUE:
        print "Got into while loop"
        for line in input.readlines():
            if len(line)>1:
                first_iteration == wx.FALSE
                tokens=line.split("|")

                self.command = tokens[0][0]+tokens[0][1]
                self.arguments =

tokens[0].lstrip(tokens[0][0]+tokens[0][1]+" ") print self.command print self.arguments self.ProcessCommand(self.command, self.arguments) wx.GetApp().Yield()
