Got all three at http://bugs.python.org/issue4733 . Probably got all three wrong too, so any feedback is very welcome :) I think a neat improvement, besides better docs, names, code, etc., would be to implement Carl Bank's idea of checking Content-Encoding. Oh, and there's a 'print("Using default charset '%s'" % response.charset)' in there that seemed educational when I wrote it, but now sounds lame :) Glenn, can you test the patch[1] there? Thanks for the encouragement, Chris! I hope we don't regret it :D Daniel [1]http://bugs.python.org/file12437/urlopen_text.diff -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
