Neil Schemenauer <nas-pyt...@arctrix.com> added the comment:
Perhaps the 'csv' module should do some sanity checking on the file passed to the reader. The docs recommend that newline='' be used to open the file. Maybe 'csv' could check that and warn if its not the case. I poked around but it seems like io files don't have a handy property to check for that. Further, maybe 'csv' could check if the file is a codecs.StreamReader object. In that case, there is no way to turn off the extra newline characters and so that's probably a bug. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34801> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
