Is there a reason tarfile and zipfile don't use the same method/member names,
where it makes sense? Consider the following six methods/members, which I
would expect to be the same (with the possible exception of mtime vs date_time,
which are of different types). It almost seems like someone went out of their
way to make it difficult to use them interchangeably.
tarfile zipfile
TarFile ZipFile
getmember(name) getinfo(name)
getmembers() infolist()
getnames() namelist()
TarInfo ZipInfo
name filename
mtime date_time
size file_size
