Claudiu.Popa added the comment: There are other modules with support for bytes filenames in their API:
bz2 codecs gzip lzma pipes.Template tarfile tokenize fileinput filecmp sndhdr configparser Also, given the fact that sndhdr supports them and its purpose is similar with imghdr, it would be a surprise for a beginner to find out that imghdr.what(b"img") is not working, while sndhdr.what(b"snd") works. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19997> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
