[issue8604] Alias for distutils.file_util.write_file in e.g. shutils

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou <pitrou at free.fr> added the comment:

This sounds silly to me. You can write a file in two lines:

with open("foo", "wb") as f:
    f.write(contents)

If you want to do something more useful, you can add a function for atomic writing of a file.
