At present, chcp reports code page 437, which is a form of extended ascii. Truly pathetic. Here is an interesting post: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/878972/windows-cmd-encoding-change-causes-python-crash It mentions cp65001, which is intended to be compatible with utf-8, although it may have some minor bugs. So it appears that after *years* of looking in the wrong places I am finally on the right track. My assumption is that setting cp65001 in a few "base" batch files, combined with a bit of code in sitecustomize.py will do the job. I'll keep you informed: surely I am not the only one to be confused... Edward -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
