`Context.log_file` does not allow bytes type about pwntools HOT 2 CLOSED

Sure!

As I understand your comment, you use bytes internally, so you're asking me to ensure that bytes can be used without errors as well. If I've misunderstood, please let me know.

Additionally, I looked up misc.need_bytes, but I found only util.packing._need_bytes function.
I think it is a function that replaces str to bytes, whereas we need the opposite functionality for this issue.
Hence, I will use util.packing._need_text or util.packing._decode to solve this issue.

If the above is okay, I'll write PR for you!

Thanks for the report. We usually deal with those by implicitly converting string arguments to bytes and only use bytes internally. There is misc.need_bytes for this. Would you be willing to propose a pull request to fix this?
