Hi all, I have a patch for the fileinput.FileInput class, adding a parameter to the __init__ method called write_mode in order to specify the write mode when using the class with the inplace parameter set to True.
Before I submit the patch, I've added a test to the test module, and noticed that the module is pretty messy, with half of the tests being run in the module body, and the rest in a large function body. I propose to refactor the module, moving the tests into a unittest.TestCase subclass (essentially unchanged, bar changing verify calls to self.assert_ calls, raise TestFailed(...) to self.fail(...) etc). I think this will add clarity and modularity to the tests, and bring them into line with the unittest based test suite used by the test_file module amongst others (which I'm guessing are substantially more up to date than test_fileinput). Any thought?
