if stdout is pipelined, python tries to encode its output

from locale import getpreferredencoding
from sys import stdout
try:
STDOUTENCODING = stdout.encoding
except AttributeError:
STDOUTENCODING = None
if not STDOUTENCODING:
STDOUTENCODING = getpreferredencoding()
def kprint(*args, **kwargs):
"""a wrapper around print, always encoding unicode to something sensible"""
newArgs = [unicode(x).encode(STDOUTENCODING) for x in args]

print(*newArgs, sep=kwargs.get('sep', ' '), end=kwargs.get('end', '\n'),
file=kwargs.get('file'))
Thanks for tips and solutions.
I added at the top of the script
reload(sys)
sys.setdefaultencoding( 'ISO8859-1' )
and that solves the problem. It now shows German and French accented
chars correctly both when run from Eric4 and from the console.
I found this solution some time ago when I was having problems with
processing Cyrillic attachments. It feels a bit like a not too elegant
brute force solution. Should I make an attempt in the style that Tobias
suggests??
Cheers, Janwillem
