Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: This note looks outdated.
In 2.x 8-bit file names are written as is, implying cp437 or what your consumers expect. Unicode file names are encoded to ascii or utf-8 (with setting utf-8 flag). In 3.x only Unicode file names are accepted, and they always are encoded to ascii or utf-8. There is no way to write non-ascii non-utf-8 file names. cp437 is not used at all. Maybe just remove this misleading note? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27344> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
