STINNER Victor <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: Function result type should be the same of the connection is in text mode or binary mode. As far as I remember, the text mode converts the newline byte sequence, not the charset. A text file could be stored as latin-1, utf-8, koi-8 or anything else. Am I wrong?
ftplib should use byte strings (as I did for POP3, IMAP4 or some other libraries) because the FTP protocol doesn't send the charset. ---------- nosy: +haypo _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1248> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
