>From my point of view, I still think it's an excellent idea and would be happy to review a patch, but I'm unlikely to get around to implementing it myself. Also keep in mind that we now have the option of doing this only for the new io module in Python 3.0 - it may be easier to do that and implement something in pure Python rather than having to deal with the 2.x file implementation. (P.S. I found the double negative in Raymond's original comment a little tricky to parse even as a native English speaker. I would also take Skip's comment as merely discouraging adding a completely new method rather than the original idea) _____________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1152248> _____________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
