The bug here is that you are trying to write an unicode text string ("ä") to a binary file (a gzip file). This bug has been fixed now; in the next 3.x versions it will raise a TypeError: >>> x = gzip.open("testdatei", "wb") >>> x.write("ä") Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "/home/antoine/py3k/__svn__/Lib/gzip.py", line 227, in write self.crc = zlib.crc32(data, self.crc) & 0xffffffff TypeError: must be bytes or buffer, not str You have to encode manually if you want to write text strings to a gzip file: >>> x = gzip.open("testdatei", "wb") >>> x.write("ä".encode('utf8')) Regards Antoine. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
