Oops! Thanks for the response, and that was a silly typo... I put it in its own module because there is a fair amount of stuff done to generate the file that I want to return.
I'm having a problem now with the Content Type not being properly set - the file is a FITS file (http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/heasarc/ fits.html), but it is being downloaded by browsers as an HTML file. I changed the code from what is above to using pylons: pylons.response.headers['Content-Type'] = 'application/fits' pylons.response.headers['Content-Disposition'] = 'attachment; filename="spSpec.fits" This doesn't seem to set the content type properly - is there a correct way to do it?
