Subject: [icalendar-dev] saving/loading calendars problem

Is there a bug in the Calendar.as_string() method, or am I doing something wrong?

cal2 = Calendar.from_string(cal.as_string())

Doing this always gives me an error, no matter whether I import a calendar or make my own within icalendar. If it's a bug, I think it's with the Calendar.as_string() because when I do this:

cal = Calendar.from_string(open("example.ics", "rb).read())
f = open("example.ics.copy", "wb")
f.write(cal.as_string())

then when I do $diff example.ics example.ics.copy there is a lot of difference, but when I do $cp example.ics example.ics.cp_copy I find no difference.

Is there some other way to export from icalendar?
