How can the application guess the encoding better than Python? If the user doesn't configure correctly its environment, I don't see how the application can get the real (correct) environment config?! If Python is unable to start because of the filesystem encoding, it is a bug (see #8611). If Python starts but displays incorrectly filenames, it is the user fault: the user have to setup its environment. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9632> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
