[issue6226] Inconsistent 'file' vs 'stream' kwarg in pprint, other stdlibs

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray <rdmurray at bitdance.com> added the comment:

Yes, simply saying "make it consistent" is a won't fix, because of backward compatibility issues.  Specific proposals for specific functions in a way that deals with the backward compatibility issues should be opened as new issues.
