irdb added the comment: Thank you Serhiy for working on this. This patch solves the problem when all your input characters are encodable using system preferred encoding. But issue19625 persists. I still can't print something like 'Русский текст' in interactive mode.
Another problem is that output of interactive mode and running a module is different if source encoding is something other that system's default. For example: (With current patch) in interactive mode: >>> print 'آ' آ >>> print u'آ' آ But in when running same commands from a file with utf-8 encoding: ط¢ آ I know, you siad to use cp1256 encoding in my source file. But I really prefer to work with utf-8 than working with a codepage that is not fully compatible with my language and I believe many other programmers are the same as me (even if there is a codepage they can work with). (cp1256 is only for Arabic, but (when a program does not support unicode) Microsoft uses it as a second option for some other similar languages like Urdu, Persian. But it does not include all the characters they need.) IMO these two problems -- being a able to type any Unicode characters in interactive mode and getting the same output as running modules -- are more important than a mere representation problem in interactive mode. (and considering that I use utf-8 for my source files, both of them were solved by martin's patch. [Of course I'm not saying it's the solution, just that it worked better for me]) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15809> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
