re Martin's question, I can offer the indirect wisdom of Michael Kaplan in this blog post: http://blogs.msdn.com/michkap/archive/2008/03/18/8306597.aspx where he mentions that the easiest way to output unicode text in the Windows console, is: int main(void) { _setmode(_fileno(stdout), _O_U16TEXT); wprintf(L"\x043a\x043e\x0448\x043a\x0430 \x65e5\x672c\x56fd\n"); return 0; } _setmode being the special call needed. I haven't tested with any _O_U8TEXT (if such a thing exists), I don't do Windows anymore, therefore I can't provide a patch. It also seems that Python —when stdin/stdout/stderr is under control of a Windows console— doesn't use plain *printf functions. The example code I offered in one of the other issues (dumb stdout doing plain .write as UTF-8) runs and displays fine. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6058> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
