* Functions for reading and writing a whole file - better handled by file objects read() and write() methods. I would be disappointed to see this left out, because I get really tired of this little dance: f = open(filename) c = f.read() f.close() return c
Python 2.5 (well, once someone finds time to update mwh's patch):
with open(filename) as f: return f.read()
Behaviour guaranteed by language definition ;)
Cheers, Nick.
P.S. I too would really like to see this happen for 2.5.
