R. David Murray added the comment: I was visualizing transform/untransform as being restricted to buffertype->bytes and stringtype->string, which at least for binascii-type transforms is all the modules support. After all, you don't get to choose what type of object you get back from encode or decode.
A more generalized transformation (encode/decode) utility is also interesting, but how many non-string non-bytes transformations do we actually support? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7475> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
