so what's "file" referring to here?

(the above works under 2.5, of course)

See http://bugs.python.org/issue1762972 -- it has been decided to drop

I've a patch that fixes the wrong error message in 
http://bugs.python.org/issue3706.

In order to obtain a string from a Python source code file, honouring encoding cookies, the tokenize module has a 'detect_encoding' function that could be useful.
