Hi,

Thanks for the patch.

I've never been happy with this, it just stems from my inexperience with
python when I wrote it.

I recently renamed the "file" argument to "content" in a branch I am 
working on to try and reduce the confusion, however supporting both
would be better.

I will merge this patch once I have completed work on said branch, 
hopefully today.

Thanks,

James
