New submission from Serhiy Storchaka <storchaka+cpyt...@gmail.com>:
The pipes module was designed as a Python interface to Unix shell pipelines. In Python 2 it works with binary streams (on Unix). But in Python 3 it opens all files and pipes in text mode with the locale encoding. It makes it unapplicable for processing binary data and text data non-encodable with the locale encoding. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 372524 nosy: serhiy.storchaka priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: pipes uses text files and the locale encodig type: behavior versions: Python 3.10, Python 3.8, Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue41150> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
