Hello,
(some comments)
What about using gzip.open instead of GzipFile ? It is just a shorthand,
but I prefer it (just my opinion). Also, remove those semicolons.
At the second example you called close on the string object, I guess you
intended to do file_obj.close()
In the third example you used "file", please change that to "open". In
this sample example, you don't need to use shutil. I suggest changing it to:
import gzip
f_in = open('/home/joe/file.txt', 'rb')
f_out = gzip.open('/home/joe/file.txt.gz', 'wb');
f_out.writelines(f_in)
file_obj_out.close()
f_out.close()
Finally, consider doing these changes against Doc/library/gzip.rst and
sending the diff
