+"""Helper class to quickly write a loop over all standard input files.
+
+Typical use is:
+
+    import fileinput
+    for line in fileinput.input():
+        process(line)
+
+This iterates over the lines of all files listed in sys.argv[1:],
+defaulting to sys.stdin if the list is empty.  If a filename is '-' it
+is also replaced by sys.stdin.  To specify an alternative list of
+filenames, pass it as the argument to input().  A single file name is
+also allowed.
+
+Functions filename(), lineno() return the filename and cumulative line
+number of the line that has just been read; filelineno() returns its
+line number in the current file; isfirstline() returns true iff the
+line just read is the first line of its file; isstdin() returns true
+iff the line was read from sys.stdin.  Function nextfile() closes the
+current file so that the next iteration will read the first line from
+the next file (if any); lines not read from the file will not count
+towards the cumulative line count; the filename is not changed until
+after the first line of the next file has been read.  Function close()
+closes the sequence.
+
+Before any lines have been read, filename() returns None and both line
+numbers are zero; nextfile() has no effect.  After all lines have been
+read, filename() and the line number functions return the values
+pertaining to the last line read; nextfile() has no effect.
+
+All files are opened in text mode.  If an I/O error occurs during
+opening or reading a file, the IOError exception is raised.
+
+If sys.stdin is used more than once, the second and further use will
+return no lines, except perhaps for interactive use, or if it has been
+explicitly reset (e.g. using sys.stdin.seek(0)).
+
+Empty files are opened and immediately closed; the only time their
+presence in the list of filenames is noticeable at all is when the
+last file opened is empty.
+
+It is possible that the last line of a file doesn't end in a newline
+character; otherwise lines are returned including the trailing
+newline.
+
+Class FileInput is the implementation; its methods filename(),
+lineno(), fileline(), isfirstline(), isstdin(), nextfile() and close()
+correspond to the functions in the module.  In addition it has a
+readline() method which returns the next input line, and a
+__getitem__() method which implements the sequence behavior.  The
+sequence must be accessed in strictly sequential order; sequence
+access and readline() cannot be mixed.
+
+Optional in-place filtering: if the keyword argument inplace=1 is
+passed to input() or to the FileInput constructor, the file is moved
+to a backup file and standard output is directed to the input file.
+This makes it possible to write a filter that rewrites its input file
+in place.  If the keyword argument backup=".<some extension>" is also
+given, it specifies the extension for the backup file, and the backup
+file remains around; by default, the extension is ".bak" and it is
+deleted when the output file is closed.  In-place filtering is
+disabled when standard input is read.  XXX The current implementation
+does not work for MS-DOS 8+3 filesystems.
+
+XXX Possible additions:
+
+- optional getopt argument processing
+- specify open mode ('r' or 'rb')
+- specify buffer size
+- fileno()
+- isatty()
+- read(), read(size), even readlines()
