I replied to INADA-san message on bpo-43552: https://bugs.python.org/issue43552#msg389091 > I had forgot to consider about UTF-8 mode while finishing PEP 597. If > possible, I want to ignore UTF-8 mode when `encoding="locale"` is specified > from Python 3.10. In this case, the PEP 597 statement that open(filename, encoding="locale") is the same than open(filename) is wrong. It would mean that users which got the UTF-8 Mode enabled (implicitly or explicitly) would switch to a legacy encoding like latin1 rather than using the UTF-8 encoding, if they add encoding="locale" to their open() calls? Since the final goal is to move everybody towards to UTF-8, I'm not sure how it's a good thing. ---------- nosy: +vstinner _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue43510> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
