from sys import argv

# we could do these two on one line too, how?

print "Does the output file exists? %r" % exists(to_file)

# 如果to_file不存在的話，程序會自動在腳本當前目錄創建文件，文件名為你給的第二個參數
output = open(to_file, ‘w‘)
output.write(indata)

output.close()

使用import整個模塊的方式改寫代碼：

import sys #導入sys模塊，可以讀寫文件內容
import os  #導入os模塊，可以使用exists方法查詢文件是否存在

script, from_file, to_file = sys.argv

input = open(from_file)
indata = input.read()

print "Does the output file exists? %r" % os.path.exists(to_file)
raw_input("continue? ‘RETURN‘ for continue, ‘CTRL-C‘ for abort. >")

output = open(to_file, ‘w‘)
output.write(indata)

print "Alright, done."

output.close()
input.close()
