copied!<p>@Maxime Lorant answer is what you want. Suppose you have a list with your names.</p> <pre><code>names = ["Name1", "Name2", "Name3"] f = open("names.txt", "a") for i in names: f.write(i + "\n") f.close() </code></pre> <p>If names.txt was a blank file, now the content of it should like:</p> <pre><code>Name1 Name2 Name3 </code></pre> <p><strong>EDIT</strong> <br/> <br/> Now I see what you are trying to achieve. Please see this link : <a href="http://sivasantosh.wordpress.com/2012/07/18/displaying-text-in-pygame/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://sivasantosh.wordpress.com/2012/07/18/displaying-text-in-pygame/</a></p> <p>Basically, the newline character won't work in pygame - you have to change the coordinates of your text rectangle. I am kinda new to pygame but I managed to do what you want and here's my naive approach (I edited code from the link above):</p> <pre><code>#... f = open("t.txt") lines = f.readlines() f.close() basicfont = pygame.font.SysFont(None, 48) text = basicfont.render('Hello World!', True, (255, 0, 0), (255, 255, 255)) textrect = text.get_rect() textrect.centerx = screen.get_rect().centerx textrect.centery = screen.get_rect().centery screen.fill((255, 255, 255)) for i in lines: # each i has a newline character, so by i[:-1] we will get rid of it text = basicfont.render(i[:-1], True, (255, 0, 0), (255, 255, 255)) # by changing the y coordinate each i from lines will appear just # below the previous i textrect.centery += 50 screen.blit(text, textrect) #... </code></pre> <p>Here's the result:<img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/jn7Yy.png" alt=""></p>
