Hi Karen. Since I'm using a Japanese version of windows, the command prompt already displays messages and file names in Japanese characters. I didn't know about the commands you mentioned, thanks for letting me know. However, when I made the two changes you describe, Japanese characters become unreadable. As I said before, if I write a simple function in python which outputs a Japanese string, I can call that function in a normal python shell and everything works. It's only when I use the manage.py shell and try to perform the code above that things go wrong. Any other suggestions greatly appreciated. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
