Text File Reference and Compile

[rsbrock20]

Hello, I am new to python and was wondering how I would reference a text file (on the left) and compile it into the specific arrangement that you see on the right. I suppose I should mention that the text file on the left contains over 400+ lines. So the actual code would need to be flexible enough to potentially accommodate, perhaps 5 or 500+ lines. The '8888' that you see on the right would have to be a custom, done by myself so it's irrelevant and simply a place holder.

Thank you.

What do you mean by "compile it"? Are you saying that you want to take the text file, alter it and then save the changes? Or do you want to take the text file, alter it and create a new text file?

I suppose creating a new file is better.
