The stream is not currently accessible - it also doesn't actually always exist
because
when we're writing to the console we use a different object (I actually don't
remember why this is - maybe we could wrap that object in a stream and always
have a stream).
We could easily expose the Stream has a PythonHidden property (so it requires
import
clr) or add something like clr.FileToStream() to get the stream for normal
files though.
Or given that we're all consenting adults you could use reflection to get the
stream:
import System
f = file('abc.txt', 'w+')
f.GetType().GetField('_stream', System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance |
System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic).GetValue(f)
