Hello,
[this is my first bug report, so I'm sorry if I'm not adhering to some
conventions]
in what versions of python is this supposed to be fixed? Consider:
% python
Python 2.7.2+ (default, Nov 30 2011, 19:22:03)
[GCC 4.6.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from pydoc import pager
>>> from locale import getpreferredencoding
>>> expr = u'\u211a'
>>> pager(expr) # error
>>> pager(expr.encode(getdefaultencoding())) # works
The error is:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/pydoc.py", line 1318, in pager
pager(text)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/pydoc.py", line 1332, in <lambda>
return lambda text: pipepager(text, os.environ['PAGER'])
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/pydoc.py", line 1359, in pipepager
pipe.write(text)
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\u211a' in position
0: ordinal not in range(128)
Best,
Tom
