This triggered my to dig into this a bit. This is not fixed untill
python 3.1 but seems easilly added to the ZipFile class. My attempt to
backport this from python 3.1's gzip.py below seems to work.

import gzip
class myGzipFile(gzip.GzipFile):
def __enter__(self):
if self.fileobj is None:
raise ValueError("I/O operation on closed GzipFile object")
return self
def __exit__(self, *args):
self.close()
zfilepath = r'C:\test.gz'
s = 'This is a test'
with myGzipFile(zfilepath,'w') as output:
output.write(s)
