To further explain, I had code e.g.:
parser.add_option(u'-s', u'--seqfile', dest='seq_file_name', help=u'Write
sequence file output to FILE', metavar=u'FILE')
I had to remove the unicode designator for the first parameter:
parser.add_option('-s', u'--seqfile', dest='seq_file_name', help=u'Write
sequence file output to FILE', metavar=u'FILE')
On further investigation, it looks as though the optparse module has other
problems with Unicode: e.g. if I try to set a non-ASCII parameter on the
command line e.g.:
myprog.py -本
Then optparse can't handle that--it gets an encoding error on line 1396.
What _does_ work is that an option's parameters can be Unicode:
myprog.py -s 本.txt
So I guess there are broader problems than the specific 2.6 to 2.7 change that
I originally reported.
