Summary: os.startfile() doesn't accept Unicode filenames
Initial Comment:
WinXP, Python 2.3.4
os.startfile() seems to have problems with Unicode
filenames. Example:
>>> import tkFileDialog
>>> import os
>>> f = tkFileDialog.askopenfilename()
>>> type(f)
<type 'unicode'>
>>> os.startfile(f)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#10>", line 1, in -toplevel-
os.startfile(f)
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode
characters in position 14-16: ordinal not in range(128)
