Martin Panter added the comment: The origin of this seems to be r68835 and Issue 5008. Victor mentioned imitating the Gnu C library. Maybe there is a better way that also supports non-seekable files better, perhaps handle ESPIPE without failing.
This also affects Python 2, if you consider io.open() or io.FileIO directly. ---------- nosy: +haypo, martin.panter versions: +Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27805> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
