Hi, I'm working on surrogates in filenames on Linux (more generally on BSD and UNIX OS) to support undecodable filenames, see PEP 383. Amaury told me that I only fixed the non-Windows versions (I fixed subprocess about the current directory and _ctypes.dlopen()), but it doesn't work on Windows.
It's a choice, I didn't want to patch Windows because I know that Windows use unicode internally. I consider that developers using Python3 should use unicode on Windows, and byte or unicode+surrogates on other OS. I don't know well Windows API, and so I would like your opinion about that ;-) -- Victor Stinner http://www.haypocalc.com/ _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
