Python 3 is not failing, you are just using it the wrong way. Open your file in binary mode (as opposed to text mode) and it should work. "Text files" in Python 3 are files decoded to unicode while reading (and encoded from unicode while writing); they are much more than simply binary files with adaptive line endings. This is more or less documented here (although I agree it would perhaps need a better introductory paragraph): http://docs.python.org/py3k/library/io.html ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6822> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
