yuk.. I'd prefer the Pascal way to C's
while file.readline(line) do
// whatever
however I don't know if variables passed to Python functions can be altered?

I'd go for that.
however the file reading thing is just one example of while 1: so being able
to avoid it in this case is hardly any breakthough.
