python and another program writing to the same file
<p>I have noticed that python always remembers where it finished writing in a file and continues from that point.
Is there a way to reset that so that if the files is edited by another program that removes certain text and ads another python will not fill the gaps with NULL when it does next write?</p>

<p>I have the file open in the parent and the threading children are writing to it. I used flush to ensure after write the data is physically written to the file, but that is only good to do that. </p>

<p>Is there another function I seem to miss that will make python append properly?</p>
