Lennart Regebro <rege...@gmail.com> added the comment: In the worst case, not checking for newline='' is not a big problem, as anyone moving from Python 2 to Python 3 will open the file in binary mode. That error message could tell the user to use binary mode newlines=''.
Using textmode and newlines is only likely to happen with people writing new code for Python 3 and not reading the docs, which is a different problem. :-) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10954> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
