It's correct, but it's not consistent with the default encoding - there isn't really any default encoding in Py3k. More specifically, PyUnicode_FromString uses UTF-8, but not as a (changeable) default, but as part of its API specification. Command line arguments are in the locale's charset, so the LC_CTYPE must be used to convert them. > Would a Py_MainW or similar wrapper be easier on the UNIX guys?

It should use the locale's encoding, but doesn't. __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2128> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
