STINNER Victor <victor.stin...@haypocalc.com> added the comment: Using my patch, it is possible create a codec for any code page on demand: register a function checking if the encoding name starts with "cp" and ends with a valid code page number.
Even if it is bad idea to set the OEM code page to 65001, implement a codec for this code page would solve issue #6058 (and help issues #7441 and #10920). See also issue #1602 (Unicode support of the Windows console). I don't know if the Windows codec should be use, it available, instead of Python builtin codecs for Windows code pages (e.g. "cp1252" encoding). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12281> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
