I am confused by the socket docs for Python 3000. It says to pass a string through socket.send or socket.sendall, however, it does not seem to account for the ASCII to Unicode transition. Trying to send an ordinary Python 3k string through socket.send fails with a TypeError stating that the first arg must be bytes or buffers but not a str. Besides the misdocumented sockets, I would think it would be easier to translate a Unicode string to ASCII, however, I fear this might violate the "Explicit is better than implicit" rule and RFC tables. |

http://docs.python.org/dev/3.0/library/socket.html The examples at the bottom also add to the confusion. Also, changed title to be friendlier (failure? Mistake, more likely) and changed type to no selection. |

Thanks, fixed the docs to refer to bytes objects in r65674. |
