There are certain encodings as I went through the file Lib/encodings/aliases.py where there are all digit items that doesn't correspond to cpXXXX sequence. I think the search function is used not only for encodings that start with 'cp' and thus adding the logic might result in checks for extra cases. Sample cases : '936' : 'gbk' '8859' : 'latin_1' '646' : 'ascii' I also have limited knowledge on working through encodings/__init__.py so correct me if I am wrong on the above. Thanks. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33865> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
