Category: Unicode Group: Python 2.4 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Mark Mc Mahon (markmcmahon) Assigned to: M.-A. Lemburg (lemburg) Summary: "unicode_escape" and "raw_unicode_escape" encoding is broken Initial Comment: In Python 2.4.2 and Python 2.4.1 (Windows XP) >>> "\t\t".encode("string_escape") '\t\\t' >>> "\t\t".encode("unicode_escape") '\t\t' >>> "\t\t".encode("raw_unicode_escape") '\t\t' >>> u"\t\t".encode("unicode_escape") '\t\t' >>> u"\t\t".encode("raw_unicode_escape") '\t\t' I would have expected all to produce the same result. Also round-tripping with the encoding doesn't seem to work: >>> "\t\t".encode('string_escape').decode('string_escape') '\t\t' >>> u"\t\t".encode('unicode_escape').decode('unicode_escape') u'\t\t' Thanks Mark ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1379994&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
