Unique in what way? You mean that in file1 (confout.pdb?) there could be 
more values for the same key? or should duplicate lines in the output be 
condensed to one line? Maybe if you were more descriptive with what your 
goal and your source data is, your programming problem is easier to solve.

[It could be that you're not comfortable discussing this on a public 
mailing list, but then, this is python-tutor.  If you require hands-on 
help with complex programming problems in your work field, or even just 
working solutions, it might be more advantageous to hire me as a remote 
consultant (€120 per hour) which will enable you to offload difficult 
programming problems on me, and if you want, I'll throw in some online 
Python lessons via Skype in as well ;-) ]
