New submission from David Beazley <d...@dabeaz.com>:
Is io.FileIO.write() supposed to accept and implicitly encode Unicode strings
as illustrated by this simple example?
>>> f = open("/dev/null","wb",buffering=0)
>>> f.write("Hello World\n")
12
>>>
Moreover, is the behavior of BufferedWriter objects supposed to be different as
illustrated by this example:
>>> f = open("/dev/null","wb")
>>> f.write("Hello World\n")
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: write() argument 1 must be bytes or buffer, not str
>>>
