[issue2675] Curses terminal resize problems when Python is in interactive mode

2012-05-17 Thread poq
poq added the comment: Just to confirm: curses SIGWINCH handling is still (2.7/3.2) broken after importing readline. Readline seems to set the LINES/COLUMNS environment vars, and this confuses curses, even if curses is imported after readline. Clearing the LINES/COLUMNS vars after import

2012-03-11 Thread poq
poq added the comment: Martin, I agree that wcswidth is incorrect with respect to Unicode. However I don't think that's relevant at all. Python should only try to match the behaviour of the terminal. Since terminals do slightly different things, trying to match them exactly - in

[issue12568] Add functions to get the width in columns of a character

2012-03-10 Thread poq
poq added the comment: It seems this is a bit of a minefield... GNOME Terminal/libvte has an environment variable (VTE_CJK_WIDTH) to override the handling of ambiguous width characters. It bases its default on the locale (with the comment 'This is basically what GNU libc does').

poq added the comment: Martin, I think you meant to write "if w == 'A':". Some very common characters have ambiguous widths though (e.g. the Greek alphabet), so you can't just raise an error for them. http://unicode.org/reports/tr11/ says: "Ambiguous charact

2012-03-01 Thread poq
poq added the comment: It is generally considered more correct to write "floating-point number", because "floating-point" is a compound adjective here. The hyphen clarifies that it should be parsed as ((floating point) number) instead of (floating (point number)).

2011-08-18 Thread poq
poq added the comment: I think this is because dumps() uses the C encoder. Making the C encoder incremental (i.e. iterator-based) like the Python encoder would solve this. I actually looked into doing this for issue #12134, but it didn't seem so simple; Since C has no yield, I thin
