Martin Panter added the comment: I’m starting to understand that there might be a “reconstruction algorithm” needed. When reading, TextIOWrapper buffers decoded characters. If you call tell() and there is unread but decoded data, it is not enough to return the incremental decoder state. You have to handle the unread buffered data as well. Looking at the _pyio tell() implementation, it tries to wind the decoder backwards to minimize the state.
