The csv file object knows the encoding it was opened with, I think? If so, we could add an enhancement that bytes objects are first decoded to str using the same encoding the file was opened with. That seems like a reasonable new feature to me. Everything else would continue to be passed through str(). ---------- nosy: +steven.daprano type: behavior -> enhancement _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue40762> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
