Summary: optparse does not hande unicode help strings
Initial Comment:
Unicode strings with non-ascii chars in generate a
UnicodeEncodeError
File "/usr/lib/python2.3/optparse.py", line 1370, in
print_help
file.write(self.format_help())
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode
characters in position 200-202:
+ordinal not in range(128)
I'm subclassing OptionParser and adds the following
method to get it to work. Should something like this be
done for python 2.5?
def print_help(self, file=None):
if file is None:
file = sys.stdout
file.write(self.format_help().encode(file.encoding,
'replace'))

Fixed pretty much as suggested in upstream Optik repository:
r520.
(However, I had to use
getattr(file, 'encoding', sys.getdefaultencoding())
to maintain compatibility with Python 2.0 .. 2.2).
No doc changes, since help generation isn't really
documented all that well anywhere. ;-(
Fixed on Python trunk: r46861.
