New submission from Adam Bartoš: When a Python script is run by drag-and-dropping another file on it in Windows explorer, the other file's path becomes sys.argv[1]. However, when the path contains a Unicode characters (e.g. α), it gets crippled – it is replaced by ordinary question mark.
Maybe this is not Python's fault. Calling directly GetCommandLineW already contains that question mark. I'm just curious whether the original path even can be reconstructed. ---------- components: Unicode, Windows messages: 269991 nosy: Drekin, ezio.melotti, haypo, paul.moore, steve.dower, tim.golden, zach.ware priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Unicode filename gets crippled on Windows when drag and drop type: behavior versions: Python 3.5, Python 3.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27469> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
