Yes.
* If it is an open file object, the archive will be written to that file object, which must be open for writing in bytes mode. * If the target is omitted (or None), the source must be a directory and the target will be a file with the same name as the source, with a ``.pyz`` extension added.
Hmm. So one _must_ specify a target if one wants a .pyzw.
Correct. Generally I don't think pyzw will be used often, so I don't see that as a major problem. I'll add a clarifying note if the PEP needs another round of edits, but I'm inclined not to bother the PEP editors if this is all that needs changing.
The destination archive will have the specified name. The given name will be used as written, so should include the ".pyz" extension.
Or ".pyzw", I presume. You used ``funny quotes`` around extensions earlier, but not here.
Again yes. Normal quotes because this chunk is already in a literal block, so ``...`` is redundant. Paul
