I have a ppm file that python 2.5 on Windows XP cannot read completely. Python on linux can read the file with no problem Python on Windows can read similar files. I've placed test code and data here: http://www.cs.ndsu.nodak.edu/~hennebry/ppm_test.zip Within the directory ppm_test, type python ppm_test.py The chunk size commentary occurs only if file.read cannot read enough bytes. The commentary only occurs for the last file. Any ideas? Any ideas that don't require getting rid of Windows? It's not my option.
You should open the files in binary mode, not text mode, ie file(path, "rb"). Text mode is the default. Not a problem on *nix because the line ending is newline. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
