Because of the switch to unicode str, a simple print('晉') should've

There is nothing wrong with Terminal, Mac OSX supports Unicode from
one end to the other.
The problem is that your code works normally in Terminal but not in a
browser.
#!/usr/bin/python
import sys, io
print("Content-type:text/plain;charset=utf-8\n\n")
sys.stdout = io.TextIOWrapper(sys.stdout.buffer, encoding="utf-8")
print("晉")
The browser shows "Server error", Apache 2 reports error:
[error] [client 127.0.0.1] malformed header from script. Bad header=
\xe6\x99\x89: test.py
I've already posted before for some reason it is not possible to mix
writing using print() and sys.stdout.buffer. On my machine, the output
got mixed up:
--------------------------
晉
Content-type:text/plain;charset=utf-8
<BLANKLINE>
<BLANKLINE>
--------------------------
notice that the chinese character is on top of the header. I guess this
is due to the buffering from print.
So far every way to print Unicode to a browser looks very un-Pythonic.
I am just wondering if I have a bug or am missing the right way
entirely.
My *guess* is Apache does not request a utf-8 stdout. When run on the
Terminal, the Terminal requested utf-8 stdout from python and the script
runs correctly. I'm not too familiar with Apache's internal nor how
python 3 figured its stdout's encoding, you might want to find Apache's
mailing list if they have any similar case.
PS: You might also want to look at this:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/984014/python-3-is-using-sys-stdout-buffer-write-good-style
it says to try setting your PYTHONIOENCODING environment variable to "utf8"
