Hi, I am looking in to improving Python 3.X support for PyFilesystem (https:// code.google.com/p/pyfilesystem/).
There is provisional Python 3 support in there, but a stumbling block is that I would like the open method to work like io.open in Py3 -- specifically returning text mode streams that handle the unicode encoding/ decoding. At the moment, the 'open' method of PyFilesystem objects just returns a Python 2 style file-like object. What I could use is a way of taking a Python 2.X file-like object together with the mode, encoding and buffering etc. and return an appropriate IO stream that handles the encoding/decoding. I'm sure I could implement the logic myself by looking at the mode/ encoding and return the appropriate IO interface, but I was hoping there was something in the stdlib to do this, or some pre-existing code I can lift?
