Glenn Linderman <v+pyt...@g.nevcal.com> added the comment: There is no traceback. Here is the text of the Syntax error.
d:\my\im\infiles>c:\python32\python.exe d:\my\py\t33a.py -h File "d:\my\py\t33a.py", line 2 SyntaxError: Non-UTF-8 code starting with '\xc3' in file d:\my\py\t33a.py on line 3, but no encoding declared; see http://python.org/dev/peps/pep-0263/ for details My understanding is Python 3 uses utf-8 as the default encoding for source files -- unless there is an encoding line; and I've set my emacs to save all .py files as utf-8-unix (meaning with no CR, if you aren't an emacs user). I verified with a hex dump that the encoding in the file is UTF-8, but you are welcome to also, that is the file I uploaded. So your testing would seem to indicate it is a platform specific bug. Try running it on Windows, then. Further, if it were the platform default encoding, adding a space wouldn't cure it... the encoding of the file would still be UTF-8, and the platform default encoding would still be the same whatever you think it might be (but I think it is UTF-8 for source text), so adding a space would not effect an encoding mismatch. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14811> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
