[Tutor] sending both a filename and an argument from the command line

[Ben Vinger]

Hi



OK, thanks to that advice, it works, but behaves strangely.  (it prints the correct output, but also some comments and code to the console)



#!/usr/bin/env python

# example how to take a filename and an ip address as command line arguments

# python ip.py capture.txt --ip 66.218.71.109



import  os, sys, fileinput, optparse



from optparse import OptionParser



parser = OptionParser()

parser.add_option("--ip", dest="ip address to test", help="example: python ip.py capture.txt --ip 66.218.71.109")

options, argv = parser.parse_args(sys.argv)



for line in  fileinput.input(argv):

    if line.find(sys.argv[3]) > 0:

        print line



The output of 

python ip.py capture.txt --ip 66.218.71.109

looks like this (note the unwanted lines from the script): 



# python ip.py capture.txt --ip 66.218.71.109

parser.add_option("--ip", dest="ip address to test", help="example: python ip.py capture.txt --ip 66.218.71.10

9")

Thanks
