New submission from Michael Mullins <pabloonbr...@gmail.com>: When using NNTP.body(id,file) I get the following repeatable error:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "nntplib.py", line 436, in body return self.artcmd('BODY {0}'.format(id), file) File "nntplib.py", line 410, in artcmd resp, list = self.longcmd(line, file) File "nntplib.py", line 267, in longcmd return self.getlongresp(file) File "nntplib.py", line 249, in getlongresp file.write(line + b'\n') File "/usr/lib/python3.0/io.py", line 1478, in write s.__class__.__name__) TypeError: can't write bytes to text stream But by simply changing the line openedFile = file = open(file, "w") ...to... openedFile = file = open(file, "wb") ...in the following code: def getlongresp(self, file=None): """Internal: get a response plus following text from the server. Raise various errors if the response indicates an error.""" openedFile = None try: # If a string was passed then open a file with that name if isinstance(file, str): openedFile = file = open(file, "wb") ...it seems to fix the problem. I discovered this in 3.0, but downloading and inspecting the source for 3.1 shows the same problem.
