Amaury Forgeot d'Arc <amaur...@gmail.com> added the comment: Your problem is similar to this discussion: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/405058/line-reading-chokes-on-0x1a On Python2, files are based on the fopen() C function, and on Windows files opened in text mode stop reading on the first character 26 (^Z, or EOF)
The best solution here is probably to open the file in "universal" mode: f = open("test.txt", "rU") ...Or use Python3, which has a completely new implementation of the open() function. ---------- nosy: +amaury.forgeotdarc resolution: -> wont fix status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15129> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
