If the open() call is guarded against exceptions (as it usually should),
one must revert to the classic syntax:
Hmmm, maybe we could do with a with-except statement:
with open(path) as f:

except IOError:

Although that would be a bit confusing.
I wrap the with inside a try/except, the other file handling parts
within another try/except and use the finer grained exceptions from PEP
3151 to write (at least to my eye) cleaner looking code. Somehow I
think we'll get agreement on the best way to do this when the cows come
home.
On Windows it's my experience that EOF from interactive sessions is
ignored. Programs keep going as best they can, providing some other
means of exit, e.g., an 'exit' command.
But maybe that's just the shell.
