Edit File: pp.py

#! /usr/bin/python2.7

# Emulate some Perl command line options.
# Usage: pp [-a] [-c] [-d] [-e scriptline] [-F fieldsep] [-n] [-p] [file] ...
# Where the options mean the following:
#   -a            : together with -n or -p, splits each line into list F
#   -c            : check syntax only, do not execute any code
#   -d            : run the script under the debugger, pdb
#   -e scriptline : gives one line of the Python script; may be repeated
#   -F fieldsep   : sets the field separator for the -a option [not in Perl]
#   -n            : runs the script for each line of input
#   -p            : prints the line after the script has run
# When no script lines have been passed, the first file argument
# contains the script.  With -n or -p, the remaining arguments are
# read as input to the script, line by line.  If a file is '-'
# or missing, standard input is read.

# XXX To do:
# - add -i extension option (change files in place)
# - make a single loop over the files and lines (changes effect of 'break')?
# - add an option to specify the record separator
# - except for -n/-p, run directly from the file if at all possible
