[QUOTE="paul.keating, post: 2045904"] It probably is misleading. But I'd say it's a misleading Linux message not a misleading Python message. f = file(r'c:\temp\DoesNotExist.txt','a') not only does not give a misleading error under Windows, it works. It appears that under Linux if you open a file for writing, but specify append, it complains about the append if there isn't a file to append to (a reasonable complaint, IMO). [/QUOTE]
