The io.TextIOWrapper documentation says that the write_through argument was added in version 3.3:
"Changed in version 3.3: The write_through argument has been added."
http://docs.python.org/dev/library/io.html#io.TextIOWrapper
However, it seems to be present in 3.2. Also, the 3.2 documentation does not mention the write_through argument.

If I remember correctly it existed in one of the versions (python vs C) but not in both. Or, it existed but wasn't actually respected by one of the versions.
cjerdonek commentedon Aug 13, 2012
The C version seems to have it in 3.2 as well:
http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/5b629e9fde61/Modules/_io/textio.c#l818
Is it possible you were thinking of bpo-15571 (not "used" in Python version but still respected)?

See 9144014028f3. It was part of a bugfix in the 3.2 branch, therefore it wasn't exposed as a public API.

Ah, thank you. I see.
