Petri Lehtinen added the comment: The encode() and decode() functions also expect binary file objects.
Attached a patch that changes documentation and docstrings. Removed the mentions of readline(), because read() is called on input instead, if the binascii module is available. Also removed the repeated descriptions of quotetabs and header in encodestring()'s docs. ---------- keywords: +needs review, patch nosy: +petri.lehtinen stage: -> patch review Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file26886/issue15588.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15588> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
