open¶

tinycompress.lzssw.open(filename, mode='r', encoding=None, errors=None, newline=None)[source]¶

Opens an LZSSW compressed file.

This provides a high-level interface similar to the built-in open() function but for LZSSW compressed files. It supports both binary and text modes with default compression parameters.

Parameters:

filename (str | bytes | IO) – Path to file or file object.
mode (str) – File open mode (‘r’/’rb’ for reading, ‘w’/’wb’/’x’/’xb’/’a’/’ab’ for writing).
encoding (str | None) – Text encoding for text mode.
errors (str | None) – How to handle encoding/decoding errors in text mode.
newline (str | None) – How to handle newlines in text mode.

Returns:

A CodecFile for binary mode or TextIOWrapper for text mode.

Raises:

ValueError – For invalid mode combinations.
