"All of the PyMOTW examples are for Python 2. I haven't started porting them to Python 3, yet. In this case, I suspect the problem is you are trying to send a unicode string through a buffer interface (all strings in Python 3 are unicode by default). Try encoding the value being passed to write(), to see if that helps. You will need to make a similar change on the other side of the pipe to decode the values being read." - Doug Hellmann

"It has been a while since I've looked into that sort of thing, and of course now my answer would be biased. :-) In the past I got good advice by asking on the mailing list(s) for the framework(s) I was using." - Doug Hellmann
