STINNER Victor added the comment: "To clarify - ANSI is the natural default *for programs that don't support Unicode*."
Exactly. For this reason, I am stronly opposed to chnage the default encoding. I'm ok to add helper functions or new flags. It looks like it took more than five years to support well Unicode in Python 3 on UNIX, and that we now have to enhance "Unicode support" (use the right encoding, use a real Unicode API) on Windows :-) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27179> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
