New submission from Christoph Gohlke <cgoh...@uci.edu>:
On Windows 7, Python 2.6 raises an IOError when opening a valid file URL with
urllib.urlopen(). A patch to the nturl2path.url2pathname function is attached.
It replaces '%7C' by '|' in the url at the top of the url2pathname function.
Python 2.6.4 (r264:75708, Oct 26 2009, 08:23:19) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on
win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import sys, urllib
>>> fname = sys.executable
>>> fname
'x:\\python26\\python.exe'
>>> fname = "file:///" + fname.replace('\\', '/').replace(':', '|')
>>> fname
'file:///x|/python26/python.exe'
>>> urllib.urlopen(fname)
