R. David Murray added the comment: This is the documented behavior of the -u option. It puts the streams in binary mode "on systems where it matters", which would be windows. That is, universal newline processing is disabled when you use -u.
Note that this is no longer an issue in python3: there, -u only affects buffering, and not the binary/text mode (because in python3 there is always a distinction between binary and text mode, regardless of platform). ---------- nosy: +r.david.murray resolution: -> not a bug stage: -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21946> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
