> with codecs.open('test.txt', 'wb', 'utf-16-le') as fp: Since Python 2.6+, you can use io.open() which uses the new io library. The io library uses TextIOWrapper which uses incremental encoder and decoder and so handles multibyte encodings correctly (as UTF-16). Said differently, this issue is already fixed in the io library. It remembers me that I should propose again my PEP 400 :-)
