Hi everyone! I have some strings that include special characters, to be displayed in widget labels ( PyQt4 ). The output changes in diferent OS's due to diferent sys.stdout encoding
Not only the labels in the GUI change, but the source file strings are altered when I move from win to linux and vice-versa. The solution I found for now was to replace the special characters in the source file string for their representation: I replaced "é" (e acute ) by "\xe9" wich correpsond to chr(233) in the cp1252 encoding. The character é (e acute) in linux is not recognized in the source file, neither in IDLE nor in Kate My win sys.stdout.encoding is cp850 and the linux one is utf-8 Now I have "d\xe9bito" instead of "débito" (debit in portuguese). By passing the string through unicode with the convinient encoding, I ensure the labels are exibithed the same in every OS but, this way the code is not very readable. Is there a way of solving this, keeping the more readable? _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
