New submission from Gabriel Genellina <gagsl-...@yahoo.com.ar>: Attempting to directly execute a script containing non-ASCII characters in its name or path raises SyntaxError.
The script contents are mostly irrelevant, except it must contain an encoding declaration (with *any* encoding, real or inexistent). Running "python foo.py" works, but invoking it directly as "foo.py" raises `SyntaxError: None`, or sometimes `SyntaxError: encoding problem: with BOM` (no BOM is present in the source file, a plain ASCII text file). C:\TEMP>cd áéíóú C:\TEMP\áéíóú>type test.py # -*- coding: ascii -*- C:\TEMP\áéíóú>C:\Apps\Python30\python.exe test.py C:\TEMP\áéíóú>test.py SyntaxError: None To avoid any doubt, the file has no strange characters: C:\TEMP\áéíóú>python -c "print(repr(open('test.py','rb').read()))" '# -*- coding: ascii -*-\r\n' and .py files are associated with the same interpreter: C:\TEMP\áéíóú>assoc .py .py=Python.File C:\TEMP\áéíóú>ftype Python.File Python.File="C:\Apps\Python30\python.exe" "%1" %* The same thing happens if the file name contains any non-ASCII character (the path may be pure ASCII). ---------- components: Interpreter Core, Windows messages: 78286 nosy: gagenellina severity: normal status: open title: SyntaxError executing a script containing non-ASCII characters in its name or path type: compile error versions: Python 3.0 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4747> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
