New submission from Phillip Feldman <phillip.m.feld...@gmail.com>: When I try to run a Python script that contains curvy quotes inside comments, the interpreter gets upset:
SyntaxError: Non-ASCII character '\x92' in file ... on line 20198, but no encoding declared; see http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0263.html for details Given that the quotes are appearing only in comments, why does the interpreter care about them? Why should it be doing anything at all with comments other than stripping them off? ---------- messages: 145583 nosy: Phillip.M.Feldman priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Why does Python interpreter care about curvy quotes in comments? _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13185> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
