HOSTS file creation

hosts_create.py

# this is a fairly basic script that i use to create a sorted HOSTS file
# copy whatever is printed out, and you have a HOSTS file :-)

a = []
b = []

with open('/home/user/hosts.txt', 'r') as infile:
    for each in infile:
        a.append(each.replace('\n',''))

a = sorted(a)

for each in a:
    if each not in b:
        b.append('127.0.0.1 ' + each)

for each in b:
    print(each)
