New submission from Anthony Sottile <asott...@umich.edu>:
>>> with open('f.exe', 'w') as f:
... f.write('hi')
...
>>> with open('f') as f:
... print(f.read())
...
hi
`os.path.exists(...)` and others treat them as the same file as well. It seems
the only reliable way to write both files is:
1. write to f.exe
2. write to f.bak
3. move f.bak to f (`os.rename`)
