Hi. Platform: Win XP Python version: 2.4.1 Running script from: cmd.exe (windows console)
I am having some trouble passing arguments to a python script having special characters. In my case the argument is a filename (eg. udtræk.xml). It seems like python tries to guess the encoding in which the arguments are passed, instead of just recieving them in unicode, thus using main() instead of wmain() inside the interpreter. So I get an exception "IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'udtr\xe6k.xml'" as a result. How can I ensure a safe passing of arguments maybe having speciel characters within.
