delimiting text file??

[Preston Landers]

The suggestions other people have posted will work.  Probably the best
way is to have the parts of the string in a list and string.join them.
This is probably the most efficient (though I haven't done benchmarks
or anything.)

Here is the quick and dirty way:

s = some_string
pos = given_position
delimiter = ","

new_string = "%s%s%s" % (s[:pos], delimiter, s[pos:])

good luck,
