you're right, I was wrong. I've always thought writelines adds newlines in
case they arn't allready there. But it doesn't. Therefore out as tuple is
written to one line.
To make it a string change:
out = '<FONT color="','#%02X%02X%02X'%(r,g,b),'">'+makerand(),'</FONT>\n'
to:
out = '<FONT color="'+'#%02X%02X%02X'%(r,g,b)+'">'+makerand()+'</FONT>\n'
and myfile.writelines(out) to myfile.write(out).
