You describe the standard behavior, unless you close the file,
is that what you want to do; open file, read line 1, close file,
then open file, read line 2, close file? The other suggestions
here destory content, do you want that?
>>> f = open("D:/Pydev/test.txt")
>>> f.readline()
'line one\n'
>>> f.readline()
'line two\n'
>>> f.readline()
'line three\n'
