[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray added the comment:

Agreed, the current wording is correct and complete, except for the name vs 
named bit.  I've fixed that.

SilentGhost added the comment:

I don't see how this is an improvement. Before it clearly said that the first 
argument must be file name, now it's an oddly confusing statement. Also, 
typically we don't list all the possibilities of what the arguments must not be.

Maybe in the sentence, name should be named?

It says "The source code is loaded from the file name *file*". That seems 
unambiguous enough to me.

[Decorater]

New submission from Decorater:

py_compile.compile() does not specify if it can accept a file like object or a 
bytes like object with the file's data.

Although I need something that can allow me to import byte like objects if the 
object contains valid python script data.
(basically it would have to act as a import unless I have to exec the data in 
it which would be totally bad as it would not be able to retain all of the data.

Long story short I need a way to import the data returned from the dec_script() 
function in this: https://bpaste.net/show/694c231c566c
