Hy.
I'm playing with os.popen function.
a = os.popen("somecmd").read()
If one of the lines contains characters like "è", "æ"or any other it loks
line this "velja\xe8a 2009" with that "\xe8". It prints fine if i go:
for i in a:
print i:
'\xe8' is a *single* byte (not four). It is the 'LATIN SMALL LETTER E WITH
GRAVE' Unicode code point u'è' encoded in the Windows-1252 encoding (and
latin-1, and others too). This is the usual Windows encoding (in "Western
Europe" but seems to cover a much larger part of the world... most of
America, if not all).
When you *look* at some string in the interpreter, you see its repr()
(note the surrounding quotes). When you *print* some string, you get its
contents:
py> s = "ma mère"
py> s
'ma m\x8are'
py> print s
ma mère
py> print repr(s)
'ma m\x8are'
How to solve this and where exectly is problem with print or read!
Windows
XP, Python 2.5.4
There is *no* problem. You should read the Unicode howto:
<http://docs.python.org/howto/unicode.html>
If you still think there is a problem, please provide more details.
