Why did you add the PRINT option? if you choose an output file it means that you don't want to see the results in

There are definitely cases where you won't want to print to screen.
Consider the case of automating this along w/ a bruteforce module. You
generally wouldn't care to see anything except (generated) successes.

Did you considered that tee_output(), that opens and closes the output file, is called for every generated 
combination? Are you trying to be sure that no partial output is lost if the target volume gets full?

Good point, yeah. It should definitely be modified to open only once.
It will be closed automatically when the run method finishes, so
generally speaking, there's no need to explicitly close.
