For both. But the flush() I was referring to is actually *before* either of these, suggesting sys.stdout.flush() sys.stdout.buffer.write(data) sys.stdout.buffer.flush() However the first flush() is only necessary is there's a possibility that previously something had been written to sys.stdout (not to sys.stdout.buffer). > For the CGI example in the PEP, I don't want to bother trying to make it > fully production-usable; that's what we have wsgiref in the stdlib for.

Surely copying and pasting the examples should work? What are the details you'd like to leave out? -- --Guido van Rossum (python.org/~guido) _______________________________________________ Web-SIG mailing list Web-SIG@python.org Web SIG: http://www.python.org/sigs/web-sig Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/web-sig/archive%40mail-archive.com
