AFAIK using file( ) to open a file is deprecated in favor of open( )and while grepping through the stdlib I noticed a couple of occurences of file( ) in the latest revision. This patch changes these calls to open( ); all tests are passed.

I think we should do this at least in the Py3k branch.

[nogradi]

Sounds good :)

[nogradi]

I've just checked and in the py3k branch this has already been done.

Then, given that it's only four occurences, I think we needn't bother with the 2.x line.
