+# Wrapper around Python to emulate the Perl -ae options:
+# (1) first argument is a Python command
+# (2) rest of arguments are input to the command in an implied loop
+# (3) each line is put into the string L with trailing '\n' stripped
+# (4) the fields of the line are put in the list F
+# (5) also: FILE: full filename; LINE: full line; FP: open file object
+# The command line option "-f FS" sets the field separator;
+# this is available to the program as FS.
