reading/writing files

[sandipm]

Hi,

I am trying to read a file and write into other file. if I do it for
simple text file, it works well.
but for pdfs or some other mime types, its failing.

actually main problem is i am uploading file using cgi, in this
process I am getting content of file, and I am
trying to save the file. I think I need to specify mimetype of file
somehow..?
any quick solutions? or need to google.

f1= open("file1.pdf", "rb")
x = f1.read()
open("file2.pdf", "wb").write(x)

works...

thanks
