(When you post on this list, your comments should follow the pieces 
you're responding to.  That's a long-standing convention.)

As I explained earlier, your nested loops won't work correctly, as you 
fail to re-open the orig1 file.  Since you still seem to think it'll 
work, I'll just hope this assignment is for fun, and not for anything 
that matters.

In particular, the first line will be compared to all the others.   But 
if the third line should have matched the seventh, it won't get written out.
