---
The :mod:`bz2` module has been rewritten from scratch. In the process, several
new features have been added:
* :class:`bz2.BZ2File` can now read from and write to arbitrary file-like
objects, by means of its constructor's *fileobj* argument.
(Contributed by Nadeem Vawda in :issue:`5863`)
* :class:`bz2.BZ2File` and :func:`bz2.decompress` can now decompress
multi-stream inputs (such as those produced by the :program:`pbzip2` tool).
:class:`bz2.BZ2File` can now also be used to create this type of file, using
the ``'a'`` (append) mode.
(Contributed by Nir Aides in :issue:`1625`)
* :class:`bz2.BZ2File` now implements all of the :class:`io.BufferedIOBase` API,
except for the :meth:`detach` and :meth:`truncate` methods.
