I maintain the scipy matlab file readers; the variables within these files are zlib compressed streams. Is there (should there be) a safe and maintained way to allow me to read a stream that does not return Z_STREAM_END? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8672> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
