Walter Dörwald added the comment: This is not the fault of pprint. IMHO it doesn't make sense to fix anything here, at least not for pprint specifically. print() has the same "problem":
$ LANG= ./python -c "print('\u20ac')" Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in <module> UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character '\u20ac' in position 0: ordinal not in range(128) ---------- nosy: +doerwalter _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19100> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
