Extract of http://wiki.tcl.tk/1364 : "RS 2008-07-09: Unicode out of BMP (> U+FFFF) requires a deeper rework of Tcl and Tk: we'd need 32 bit chars and/or surrogate pairs. UTF-8 at least can deal with 31-bit Unicodes by principle." > I don't think there is anything practical IDLE > or tkinter can do about that. We might raise an error with better error message than ValueError('unsupported character'), but it's maybe overkill. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12342> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
