Summary: [win32] stderr atty encoding not set
Initial Comment:
When starting python console application under windows,
output of unicode strings to console fails because of
ansi encoding. I found that in file
Python-2.4.2/Python/sysmodule, _PySys_Init functions,
setting encoding on stderr was forgotten:
#ifdef MS_WINDOWS
if(isatty(_fileno(stdin))){
sprintf(buf, "cp%d", GetConsoleCP());
if (!PyFile_SetEncoding(sysin, buf))
return NULL;
}
if(isatty(_fileno(stdout))) {
sprintf(buf, "cp%d", GetConsoleOutputCP());
if (!PyFile_SetEncoding(sysout, buf))
return NULL;
}
#endif
I think the following lines should be added:
if(isatty(_fileno(stderr))) {
sprintf(buf, "cp%d", GetConsoleOutputCP());
if (!PyFile_SetEncoding(syserr, buf))
return NULL;
}
Otherwise it's inconsistant, as if we set it to sysout,
why not on syserr? And, for example, this code will not
work properly:
#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- encoding: mbcs -*-
import sys
reload(sys) # bring setdefaultencoding back!
sys.setdefaultencoding("mbcs")
sys.stderr.write(u"<native text>\n")
Instead of native text garbage will be printed (if you
change it to sys.stdout, proper text displayed), and
there is no way I know to properly determine and set
encoding just for stderr (file.encoding is read-only,
after all).

Ooops, sorry, in the example it should be:
print >>sys.stderr, u"<native text>"
