Fredrik Lundh <fred...@effbot.org> added the comment: Oops :) Yeah, that was pretty lousy way to show what encoding I was using for that test:
>>> import locale >>> locale.getpreferredencoding() 'cp1252' >>> (Somewhat related, it would be nice if Python actually normalized defaultencoding/preferredencoding to some canonical name for the codec in use, i.e. preferred MIME name or at least IANA; we had a rather nice little bug recently that wouldn't have happened if that had been the case...) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8047> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
