I have a lot of Perl scripts that looks something like the following. What it does is that it will automatically open any file given as a command line argument and in this case print the content of that file. If no file is given it will instead read from standard input.
while ( <> ) {
print $_;
}
Is there a way to do something similar in Python without having to explicitly open each file?
