def fopen(fname):
try:
return open(fname, 'U')
except IOError, detail:
return fail("couldn't open " + fname + ": " + str(detail))
################################################################
f1 = fopen('file1.txt')
a = f1.readlines(); f1.close()
d1 = {}
for c in a:
d1[c.lower()] = None
#print d1
f2 = fopen('file2.txt')
data = f2.readlines(); f2.close()
for line in data:
if d1.has_key( line.lower() ):
print line
