New submission from Hery <weiyong....@gmail.com>: Start from Python 3.6.3, the offical chm document is full of corrputed character.
Example: the first page which is `What’s New In Python 3.6` `’`is `0x92` in cp1252 and will not display correctly in non western european code page. An another example is `9.1. numbers — Numeric abstract base classes` `—` is `0x97`. The Microsoft HTML Help does not recognise `<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=cp1252" />`. Then, how to solve it? According to this https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/sandcastle/2007/09/29/chm-localization-and-unicode-issues-dbcsfix-exe/ I recommand to use the following command to make the hhc encoding chm as cp1252: SbAppLocale.exe $(LCID) "%PROGRAMFILES%\HTML Help Workshop\hhc.exe" Path\Project.HHp I donnot know to how to submit patch and it seems quite easy to fix by offical windows developer. ---------- components: Windows messages: 309790 nosy: Nim, paul.moore, steve.dower, tim.golden, zach.ware priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: How ro fix the chm encoding in Non western european codepage(cp1252) Windows type: behavior versions: Python 3.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue32530> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
