Senthil Kumaran <sent...@uthcode.com> added the comment: I have fixed the help to include only ascii characters ( represented in hex) so that conversion to bytes is represented in the help and also the terminal whose LANG is C is able to display them too.
On Ubuntu, when I had LANG=C, locale gave the following o/p and the previous help, (which broke for the Tuukka Tolvanen) was working fine too. LANG=C LANGUAGE=en_US:en LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 LC_NUMERIC="C" LC_TIME="C" LC_COLLATE=en_US.UTF-8 LC_MONETARY="C" LC_MESSAGES=en_US.UTF-8 LC_PAPER="C" LC_NAME="C" LC_ADDRESS="C" LC_TELEPHONE="C" LC_MEASUREMENT="C" LC_IDENTIFICATION="C" LC_ALL= I guess, the original bug could be related to settings differing on gentoo. Anyways, the help docstring is changed now. ---------- assignee: -> orsenthil nosy: +orsenthil resolution: -> fixed stage: -> committed/rejected status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14920> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
