Thomas Kluyver <tak...@gmail.com> added the comment: But the encoding used seemingly depends on the source application - Geany (GTK 2, I think) seemingly sends UTF8 text anyway, whereas Firefox escapes the unicode character. So I don't think we can correctly decode the STRING value in all cases.
The Tk documentation describes UTF8_STRING as being the "most useful" type on modern X11. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14777> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
