gistfile1.txt

# ie List is a normal list:
# 104.txt
# 105.txt
# 106.txt
# 107.txt
# 108.txt

# When done with code below should give me 5x files with a .txt extension, ie 104.txt, 105.txt. Can be any file ext.

List = open("64-120/rename.txt")
List2 = (s.strip() for s in List)
# Loop through the list and create a file with item
for item in List2:
    open('64-120/%s.txt'%(item,), 'w')
