Why can't I set sys.ps1 to a unicode string?

More precisely, why does sys.ps1 not appear if I set it to a unicode string? This problem is hard for me to describe here because my newsreader is not properly unicode enabled, but here's the gist of it: Python 2.6.1 (r261:67515, Feb 11 2010, 00:51:29) [GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5646)] on da

urllib2 does not implement "with" Python 2.6

Somewhat to my surprise, in Python 2.6, with urllib2.urlopen(url) as fh : doesn't work. It fails with "AttributeError: addinfourl instance has no attribute '__exit__'". I thought that all the file-like objects supported "with" in 2.6. No? John Nagle -
