Stefano Taschini <tasch...@ieee.org> added the comment: Here's my patch, along the lines of the work-around I posted earlier. A few remarks:
1. The modifications in pydoc only touch the four console pagers and the html pager (html.page). 2. A module-wide default encoding is initialized from locale.getpreferredencoding. Pagers that write to a file use the encoding of that file if defined, else they use the module-wide default. The html pager uses ascii. All of them use xml character entity replacement as fall-back. 3. An additional set of tests has been added to test.test_pydoc to verify the behaviour of the modifications. 4. No functionality is broken if Python is built without unicode support. ---------- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file25380/issue1065986.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1065986> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
