Hy I'm using Python 2.4.2 on an ARM (PXA-270) platform (linux-2.6.17). My Goal is to write a list of bytes down to a file (opened in binary mode) in one cycle. The crux is that a '0x0a' (line feed) will break the cycle of one writing into several pieces. Writing to a "simple" file, this wouldn't cause any problem.
Assuming - without questioning ;-) - that a device file (/dev/*) has to be written in one cycle because one write call will be interpreted as one "transaction". The write behaviour on line feed's isn't really usefull because such "transactions" would be broken up into serveral pieces and therefore for the device into several "transactions". Is there a possibility to write a list of bytes "en bloc" to a binary file? (without the interpreting of the line feed's) Opening a file i binary mode (i.e "wb") seems not to be enough. Thank you for any help Aurel -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
