This looks very much like a hardware issue. Python usually does nothing special with the 5th bit of characters. Also, the IO system and string objects are different in 2.6 and 3.1, so witnessing the same behaviour under both versions points to a likely external cause. Could you try on another system? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12784> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
