Question

how can I write a .py file from python such that its type should not be like ‘ASCII file with Windows CRLF’

because when i run file.write(data) inside windows it write the file but when I try to
eval(open(file.py).read()) it fails and gives syntax error because of windows CRLF on each line……

see the error log – traceback

ERROR:web-services:[25]:     info = eval(tools.file_open(terp_file).read(-1))
ERROR:web-services:[26]:   File "<string>", line 1
ERROR:web-services:[27]:     {
ERROR:web-services:[28]:

You can:

1. Write the file in binary mode by opening it with open(file, 'wb') or…
2. Strip the CR-LFs from the string before writing it with something like data.replace('\r','')

I would steer clear of exec and use execfile as mentioned by SilentGhost.
