hm, I've just worked on a similar controller today using TG1.0.X but I had two problems with the approach mentioned in the docs (http://docs.turbogears.org/1.0/FileUploadTutorial#add-the-download-method) which looks very similar to the example from above. The first thing is that the files I have to deliver are stored in the database and it looks like that both functions expect the file somewhere in the file system. I had a quick look at the CP sources and it seems that there's no handy function that sets proper headers when using file-like objects. I don't know the sources for fileapp, but according to the example above it should be similar. The other thing is more a question than a "real" problem. Shouldn't be the filename in the Content-Disposition header encoded according to RFC 2231 if it contains characters other than US_ASCII? AFAICT serve_file() don't handle that case, but at least I'm not sure if it's really required to follow RFC 2231... Does anyone know a convenient way to server files (possibly with non-US_ASCII chars in the file name) stored in a database with automagically good-looking headers for TurboGears 1.0?
