New submission from Jason R. Coombs: Consider this simple example in Powershell (Windows 8.1):
C:\Users\jaraco> cat .\print-input.py import sys print(next(sys.stdin)) C:\Users\jaraco> echo foo | .\print-input.py foo The BOM (byte order mark) appears in the standard input stream. When using cmd.exe, the BOM is not present. This behavior occurs in CP1252 as well as CP65001. I suspect that Python should be detecting/stripping and possibly honoring the BOM when decoding input on stdin. This issue is present in Python 3.4.0 and Python 3.4.1. I have not tested other Python versions. ---------- components: Unicode, Windows messages: 222406 nosy: ezio.melotti, haypo, jason.coombs priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: BOM appears in stdin when using Powershell versions: Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21927> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
